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.)
Ive watched a fair amount of Green Bay games this year, I was generally shocked by the amount of drops by their recievers all year. Jennings and James Jones seem to be the main culprits, Nelson dropped 3 yesterday. I wouldnt be surprised if Green Bay grabs receiver(s) in the draft, especially with their best hands guy, Driver, probably retiring.
