Week 15 Spreads: Packers vs. Steelers

NFL Game of the Week – Green Bay Packers at Pittsburgh Steelers

Sunday, December 20th – 1:00 PM ET Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PA

It’s been a stunning month for both of these teams – pleasantly for Mike McCarthy’s Pack Attack, and horrifyingly so for young Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin – as two proud franchises have swerved in perpendicularly opposite directions.
