A couple of things to mention:

First, notice how stale Green Bay's offense went in the third quarter when they abandoned the run. One reason why I feel the Steelers were able to mount a comeback is that the Packers started becoming way too one dimensional. If they would have stuck with the running game, especially when they were up 21-10, then I believe they would have shortened the game and kept the Steeler's offense off the field.

Secondly, a lot of dropped passes! If at least half of those dropped passes were caught, the Packers probably could have put the game away much sooner.

My hat's off to the Packers. I was happy to see Aaron Rodgers get his first Super Bowl ring and receive MVP honors on top of that.

As much as I hate the Pittsburgh Steelers, I do respect Mike Tomlin. He is a classy guy and I'm sure he will have the Steelers back in the thick of things again next season (whenever that next season is.)
