Week 8 of Sunday Night Football features a highly anticipated matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay will go on the road to square off against Pittsburgh and its former quarterback, Aaron Rodgers. The 4-2 Steelers will look to bounce back from a Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, while the Packers, who are 4-1-1 through their first six games, will look to build on two consecutive wins.

PrizePicks users will look for favorable lines for Sunday’s primetime showdown. Here are five of the most favorable PrizePicks plays for Sunday Night Football on Oct. 26:

DK Metcalf Over 56.5 Receiving Yards

Pittsburgh’s passing attack has emerged as a pleasant surprise for the Steelers’ offense. Aaron Rodgers has found new life in the Black and Gold, while star wideout DK Metcalf has taken over as the premier weapon of the unit. Metcalf was limited to 50 yards last week, but the Steelers' offense projects to lean on its passing game given the success of Green Bay’s run defense. Given his volume and production throughout the entire season, I’m confident in Metcalf’s ability to manage 57 yards through the air versus an inconsistent Packers pass defense.

Aaron Rodgers Over 1.5 Passing TDs

Pittsburgh’s red zone offense has seen new life compared to past years, as Arthur Smith continues to lean on the veteran leadership of Rodgers in scoring territory. Entering Week 8, he ranks fifth in the league in passing touchdowns with 14, throwing multiple touchdown passes in four of Pittsburgh’s first six games of the season. Given Green Bay’s defensive struggles in the passing game, it’s reasonable to expect Rodgers to manage his third consecutive game with multiple passing touchdowns amid a hot streak of individual play. 

Jordan Love Over 237.5 Passing Yards

Despite their struggles, Jordan Love has led the Packers to the 12th-ranked passing attack in the NFL without consistent production from his receiving corps. Green Bay’s offense will match up versus the No. 31 pass defense, presenting an ideal opportunity for Love to continue his streak of solid play. Having managed 250 passing yards in three of his first six games, PrizePicks users can rely on his production in a favorable matchup. 

Brandon McManus Over 0.5 Field Goals Made

So far this season, Packers kicker Brandon McManus has managed a field goal in each of his first four games of the season. The Packers expect the veteran kicker to return for Sunday night’s defensive battle. His line is as close to a sure thing as one could hope for, given the matchup. 

Quay Walker Over 8.5 Total Tackles

Packers linebackers Quay Walker and Edgerrin Cooper have emerged as one of the top duos at the position in the NFL. Over his last five games, he’s managed to eclipse nine tackles three times. Given Pittsburgh’s volume in the run game and success throwing over the middle of the field, Walker should manage to post nine or more tackles once again.
