Do you have a link to that forum so we can take a look?I also posted a breakdown of every Packers game this season on my Steelers forum. Packers were 1-2 when trailing at halftime and 0-2 when the game was tied at halftime.
If the Packers fall behind early, I like the Steelers to put the pedal to the metal and really bring it hard to finish out. Unlike "letting up" against the Jets.
As for the Packers record when they are not winning at halftime, I wouldn't put much stock in that. Besides the rather small sample size, how does that compare to the 31 other teams in the league? For all we know a .333 winning percentage when trailing at half time may be among the league's best.
If I recall correctly from when the Packers played the Patriots earlier this year Green Bay's worst loss of the season was 4 points (to the Pats). You can look at that one of two ways: that they won't know how to handle being down by a touchdown or more if that should happen; or that they're used to close games so if the Steelers grab a lead they're not going to freak out.
As for the Steelers putting the pedal to the metal and really bringing it hard: careful what you wish for; do you really want to take your chances with those four GB wide receivers getting single coverage against the Steeler defensive backs?
