I'm just surprised that the Packers are the favorites after a ho-hum offensive showing today.

Are you forgetting that the Steelers gained a grand total of 45 offensive yards in the second half?

Very true, but the Steelers were also able to ice the game with their offense, something the Packers failed to do a number of times in the 2nd half in spite of many opportunities in Bears' territory.
I also thought there was a perception that the AFC is still stronger than the NFC, the Steelers have more SB experience, etc.
Again, don't get me wrong, if the Packers play like they did vs. ATL they showed that at their best nobody in the league can beat them. However, based on what I mentioned, I figured Pitt would be slight favorites.
