The Steelers hype as a hard-nosed running team is more hype than truth:

"The way to stop the Steelers’ offense is to take away the deep pass. In fact, the more the Jets’ defense can force them away from passing at any depth and toward running on first and second downs, the better. Despite their reputation as a “run-first” team, the Steelers are actually a mediocre running team with a 38 percent SR, ranking 27th in the league.

I'm sure Green Bay thinks they are prepared to match the Steelers "physicality". The Jets had that same notion.

The more I look at this game, the closer it becomes. Offense, defense, special teams--virtually even in every phase of the game.

I wish it were next Sunday right now.

Jets were tired from being on the road. It was obvious and they still almost came back.

Like said above, Steelers physicality scares me not at all. But if it makes you feel better, OMG THE STEELERS ARE COMING THEY WILL DESTROY GB ALL WITH THEIR PHYSICALITY.

Child Please.

I'm just worried their cheap shot artists are gonna try to take out Rodgers. They always have a bunch on the dirtiest player lists voted on by NFL players. As Deion said, Players know Players.
Not just Rodgers, but also the vulnerable WRs, which are our edge in this game.

I have a sneaking suspicion James Jones is going to come up big for us in this game. He's big and strong.

Jeez, wishing the jets won now. Jets fans had a lot more class when they came here. The arrogance of Steeler fans is unbelieveable.

Only problem with that is the talk of revenge. Jets fans would only talk of how the Jets weren't playing well and that is why the Packers shut them out. There is a fact the Pack can brag about, they didn't let the Jets try to come back, we just shut them out.

I'm just gonna start deleting smack from steeler fan trolls. Unless Roddog or LTF tell me not too. I'm sick of perfectly good threads being wrecked by steeler trolls.

YES YES YOUR THE TOUGHEST TEAM EVER! You travel better than every fan base! There is no point in the Packers even going to Dallas! Your the greatest team of all time!

No your just part of a fan base that is arrogant, ignorant, and struggle to provide any real fans. Its easy to say your the toughest and travel the best when you cant prove anything like that.

Your getting lumped in with the rest of your fans and some of them are very arrogant.
