Pack win Super Bowl; Rodgers MVP

The Green Bay Packers won their 4th Super Bowl title earlier today, beating the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25, and culminating an impressive postseason showing for the 14-6 Packers. Although the Steelers managed to hold their own for the entire game, Pittsburgh proved to be no match for the explosive Packers offense, who did not manage to lose the lead for the entire game (although they came very close numerous times). Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for 304 yards, 3 TDs and no INTs, earning the game's MVP.  Both teams lost many key players in the first half, including CB Charles Woodson and Sam Shields, and WR Donald Driver and Emmanuel Sanders. The Super Bowl was a well played and closely matched contest, with both teams managing to perform after rocky starts. The Steelers come off their second ever Super Bowl loss, but their record 8th Super Bowl appearance.
