Play: Total: 39.5/-110 Under
Take #104 Packers vs Steelers Under There’s plenty of storyline value here with Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers facing their former team, the Packers. Rodgers and McCarthy also share the irony of winning their lone Super Bowl together against Pittsburgh. But from a betting perspective, the bigger factor is uncertainty at quarterback. Rodgers’ status remains unclear, and McCarthy has indicated that whoever starts could see only a couple of series. That makes this a difficult game to project offensively. If the starting quarterbacks see limited action—or don't play at all—we're relying heavily on backup units, and we aren't impressed with Pittsburgh's quarterback depth. Green Bay at least has veteran Tyrod Taylor available, giving the Packers some experience behind Jordan Love. The Hall of Fame Game went over the total and got there by halftime, but we're not chasing that result. Preseason scoring can be volatile, and with playing time and quarterback rotations uncertain, we expect a much more conservative offensive approach here. We're expecting a lower-scoring preseason battle with both teams relying heavily on backup quarterbacks and vanilla offensive game plans. The Under is the play.
