With the matchup featured in prime time, we’ve got our best Packers vs. Steelers predictions for Sunday Night Football.

Packers vs. Steelers Predictions for NFL Week 8, Sunday Night Football, 10/26
Between these two teams, their most recent games were decided by a combined six points. While the Packers were the ones to avoid the upset in a four-point victory, it was one in which they trailed for nearly all of it. Meanwhile, the Steelers squandered their chance to take over the AFC North with a 5-1 record and fell to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Given this matchup happening in the Steel City, a worthwhile note for any Packers vs. Steelers is the fact that Green Bay’s win over the Arizona Cardinals was their first on the road this season. It was also one that featured Micah Parsons recording THREE sacks himself, setting us up for a battle of elite pass rushers in combination with TJ Watt.
Along with some mediocre offensive line play, perhaps add a ‘total sacks recorded’ for the game could be a valuable way to add to your Packers vs. Steelers picks. We’ll share more about how that offensive line play affects our best bet as well.
As for simply predicting an outright winner, we’d support the Packers vs. Steelers odds in terms of a Green Bay victory. That said, it’s not where we’d suggest putting your money and sweating that out. Instead, the best bet from our Packers vs. Steelers predictions is focused on some player prop action.

Packers vs. Steelers Best Bet: Jordan Love Over 1.5 Passing TDs (-111 at Novig)
First and foremost, if you’d like to add some plus-money to the mix, be sure to also check out our premium NFL best bets for Sunday Night Football! In fact, it correlates perfectly to our Packers vs. Steelers predictions, so let’s get into this Green Bay passing attack thriving.
After all, we just saw a 40-year-old Joe Flacco absolutely torch this Steelers banged up secondary to the tune of 342 yards and 3 passing TDs. That’s reason enough to trust Jordan Love in this spot, not to mention the fact that he’s already had success against Pittsburgh in his young career.
It was when the Steelers had a better defense as well, and Jordan Love still threw for 289 yards and two TDs. Since then, the Pit defense now allows the second-most passing yards per game, Green Bay’s Tucker Kraft has become a massive threat AND they have an explosive rookie in Matthew Golden to pair with Romeo Doubs.Â
Even if you think their guardian caps look goofy, they get the job done. That’s all we care about, making the best bet from our Packers vs. Steelers predictions on Jordan Love over 1.5 passing TDs (-111 at Novig).
