Randall Cobb catches 2 TD passes to help Green Bay Packers defeat Pittsburgh Steelers
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Maybe the Green Bay Packers are precisely who they thought they were.
The Packers thumped the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday inside Lambeau Field, cruising to a 27-17 win in the first matchup between Aaron Rodgers and Ben Roetlisberger since Super Bowl XLV. It continued a hot streak from the Packers, who have won three straight after their shocking blowout loss to the Saints that opened their season.
There was good reason to question what the Packers could do this season after their 38-3 loss to the Saints in Week 1, a defeat that begged the question of whether they were overrated as a team entering the year. In three games since, the answer has been resounding. The Packers are now 3-1 this season, among five NFC teams with at least three wins through the first four weeks.
