Preview

Green Bay snapped their 4-game losing streak with a much-needed win over the Rams. Their defense had a standout game, holding the Rams to just 3 points. Even though the Rams were without their starting QB, it was still an encouraging result for the Packers defense. Their offense also looked improved with RB Aaron Jones back at 100%. QB Jordan Love completed 20 of 26 passes for 228 yards and a TD in the win.

The Steelers defeated the Titans, climbing to 5-3, and keeping pace in a brutal AFC North. The combined record of the four teams in the division is 22-11 (.667), with no team worse than 5-3. Pittsburgh’s defense will keep them in contention in most games, but the offense’s gradual improvements are a good sign of their odds to keep pace in the playoff race. They’ll aim to continue proving themselves against Green Bay.

Prediction

The Packers snapped a 4-game losing streak this past week, which gives them a much better chance at coming away with a win in this game. That being said, they’ve got a very tough matchup here against a brutal Steelers defense on the road. Jordan Love will have to be at his best, and even then I’m not sure if Green Bay will have enough juice on offense. I’m taking the Steelers to win a low-scoring game at home.
