How it plays out

Green Bay Packers vs Pittsburgh Steelers is an inter-conference matchup: the NFC Packers hosting the AFC Steelers. On paper this is about as lopsided as it gets: Green Bay Packers at 79% to Pittsburgh Steelers's 21%, spread GB -4.5.

Tactically, Green Bay Packers will want to lean on balanced attack to attack Pittsburgh Steelers, whose offensive line is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, Pittsburgh Steelers's physical defense could punish Green Bay Packers if edge depth goes unaddressed. Expect both staffs, Matt LaFleur and Mike Tomlin, to script around exactly that battle.

Keep an eye on Jordan Love (QB) and DK Metcalf (WR): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. With Packers at home, the model already bakes in roughly a field-goal's worth of home-field edge.
