(NFL) Green Bay vs. Pittsburgh,

Money Line: -135.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
Money Line: -135.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Mike Tomlin came into the 2015 season with a career record of 20-13 during the pre-season, but the Steelers have since lost back to back games to Minnesota and Jacksonville. This will be their third game of the pre-season, which should give them an edge on the Packers who only have one game under their belt.
Ben Roethlisberger looked sharp last week, completing all three of his pass attempts for 59 yards and a TD. He's likely to see a lot more time here in the Steeler's third pre-season game, last year he played the entire first half when the Steelers lost at Philly to the Eagles in Week 3.
The Packers will likely be a little more conservative with their starters, and we might not see a lot of Aaron Rogers. Clay Matthews did not play in Green Bay's first game, and he's still recovering from a knee injury as well as a sore elbow.
Mike McCarthy has a reputation for being a little more conservative in the pre-season, coming in to this season with an 18-18 record. I think the Steelers have more reason to get up for this game in front of the home town fans.
Take PIT.
