Ben didnโ€™t have a good game against the Bengals. But he was okay (not great) in the previous two games. Heโ€™s nowhere near the player he was, but I wouldnโ€™t quite write him off yet.  

No idea how the Steelers O-line will shake out for them this season, but 8 days ago there was a lot of bitching about the Packers O-line.  Without Z, the Packers pass rush is just so-so at best (although it looked better Sunday).  So who knows.  And that defense is still stout and did a number on Josh Allen and the high powered offense that is Buffalo.

Based on last week they won't rush Jenkins back into the lineup.

@Chongo, from linked Covid article:

"Lancasterโ€™s position coach, Jerry Montgomery, missed the Packersโ€™ week two game against the Detroit Lions, reportedly due to COVID-19 protocols...Montgomery, who is vaccinated along with the rest of the Packersโ€™ coaching staff, did return to the team in time for week threeโ€™s game in San Francisco.

If Lancaster is vaccinated..." he may return vs Steelers.

No confirmation of Lancaster's vax status. What have you heard Chongo?

Mike Tomlinson is 3-0 against the Packers and the Stillers have won the past 5 regular season games.  Packers last win (not counting SB) was in 1995. I believe that was the game Yancey Thigpen dropped the winning TD while wide open in the end zone.

Stillers are the only team AR has not faced at Lambeau. Go figure.

Didn't think about this earlier but Rodgers hasn't played the Stillers since the Super Bowl. He was out with collar bones in 2013 and 2017.

Rodgers said he expects Watt to play, would be surprised if heโ€™s not right. I expect every teamโ€™s gameplan will be like the Saints: Cover 2, shoot gaps against the run, disrupt receivers timing, force Rodgers to hold the ball, and on offense be patient and sustain drives, keep Rodgers on the bench. Theory and practice are two different things though, even with Watt itโ€™s a tall order.

Wonโ€™t be surprised if the game becomes Aaron Jones vs Najee Harris show.

I'm sure it has never been mentioned here before but we could have had TJ if we moved up a few spots in the draft.
