Week 15: Packers @ Steelers
 
Two of the biggest fanbases in the league will be in the same building as the Packers come into Heinz Field riding a 5 game win streak while Pittsburgh is coming off a huge, embarassing loss to the Browns and are currently riding a 5 game losing streak.

Discuss away.

Packers by 15+....

If the last home game at Heinz Field is any sign, the stadium will be pretty empty or filled with a good many Packer fans. I could go to the game this weekend, but decided against it. Too many other things I've got going on.

Packer win 38 -17. Rodgers has the offense clicking. The D is just sick right now. Just don't see Steelers finding the formula after the way they've been playing

I don't know. I want the Packers to storm into the playoffs and knock Favre out of it so I won't be overly upset if they win. I wouldn't expect an easy day though, if the Steelers actually show up something resembling passion they can absolutely win this game. Don't forget that while they lost to the dregs of the league they also beat a few good teams like the Chargers, the Vikings, and the Broncos....and a couple of those wins were pretty dominant.

If the Steelers win it'll have to be because of defensive scheme. The matchups are not favorable for the Steelers with Troy missing. The Packers are capable of throwing for alot of yards, and the Steelers secondary has been exposed without Troy. Lebeau's going to have to cook something good up. And we're going to have to get good penetration on the pass rush.

Steelers will also have to minimize frequent mistakes that have plagued us this year such as dropped balls, blown ST coverages, missed tackles, missed blocking assignments, and red zone turnovers by BR.

What's the weather forecast for Sunday because I know they're forecasting alot of snow here all day Saturday and I know Pittsburgh is like a 4-5 hr drive from DC so I didn't know if it would be just as bad up there like it's supposed to be down here.

Scattered snow showers, high of 31.

As for the game . . . At this point, I really don't know what to expect. The Steelers will need to bring out their A game to beat the Pack though.

If Troy is out the defense might as well not even show up. Trying to unleash hell in december is a little harder than It looks It seems.:splat:
