The HHG: Packers vs. Steelers

The heart says the Packers win. Having Pittsburgh win everything three times in six years is a bit much, so to balance out karma Green Bay should win. Yes, Ben's story of redemption could do with a winning ending. But that's a bit too American for my tastes. It would be a bit rich and a bit too pre-meditated.

The head says the Steelers win. Division winners and the most solid team coming in. With Roethlisberger at QB, you simply can't count Pittsburgh out in the clutch. The toughest defenders definitely belong to Steeler Nation, although Clay Matthews may have something to say about that.

The gut says all signs point to Pittsburgh winning another Super Bowl and becoming the NFL's own royalty, much like the Yankees in baseball and the Habs in NHL. Not too much of a fan for this, but then again even Green Bay winning it all remains emotionally less charged to the Saints' win last year.
