Green Bay vs. Pittsburgh 6:30 PM EST
Play On: Under 45.5 (508)

The foundation behind both of these defenses is the defensive coordinators. Pittsburgh defensive coordinator Dick Lebeau is widely acclaimed as the best defensive coordinator in the game. Year after year the Steelers are atop of the league statistically in all defensive categories. This season is no different as the Steelers were ranked #2 in total defense during the NFL regular season. In addition both the Jets and the Ravens were unable to do much of anything in the two Steelers playoff victories. As a matter of fact the Ravens only massed 124 yards of total offense in Pittsburgh's opening playoff victory. The Jets gained over 25% of their total offense on their last offensive possession of the game.

The Green Bay Packers have a pretty good defensive coordinator in their own right in Dom Capers. Capers may have done his best coaching job of his career this year. The Packers sustained numerous injuries on the defensive side of the ball, but it seemed no matter who they plugged in the unit didn't miss a beat. Green Bay finished the season ranked #5 in total defense in the entire league. Much in part to the defense the Packers finished the season a +18 in turnover differential. Green Bay has gone under the total in 9 of 11 games played away from Lambeau Field this season.
