Both teams have a legitimate claim to call themselves "Title Town." The Steelers have won the most Super Bowls (six) and the Packers have won the most overall championships (12).

The Packers, who barely made the playoffs as the No. 6 seed in the NFC, are favored over the Steelers by 2.5 points and the over is 46 points.

No team is tougher against the run than the Steelers, who allowed a league-low 62.8 rushing yards per game this season, which is the lowest since 2006 -- Minnesota allowed only 61.6 rushing YPG.

Both the Steelers and Packers ranked first and second in the NFL in scoring defense, allowing 14.5 and 15.0 points per game, respectively. When it comes to turnovers, each team ranked second in their conferences in takeaway differential: Pittsburgh (+17) and Green Bay (+10).

Footballoutsiders lists: Pit as the #1 Defense in football and the Packers the #2. They have Pit as the #2 overall team and the Packers as #3.

James Harrison, fined repeatedly for hard hits this season, had a message for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell: "I don't want to hurt nobody. I don't want to step on nobody's foot or hurt their toe. I don't want to have no dirt or none of this rubber on this field fly into their eye and make their eye hurt. I just want to tackle them softly on the ground and if you all can, we'll lay a pillow down where I'm going to tackle them, so they don't hit the ground too hard ... Mr. Goodell."

I went to a damn super bowl party and left at halftime :lol: That was a dagger right there, 28-17. I still can't believe that the steelers went for that 52 yard fg, that was stupid.

Mendenhall fumbling the ball in the biggest game he will ever be in, bench his ass, maybe he will finally get the hint. Turnovers are a big part of the game and we have lost that battle to this point.
