It’s Week 8 of the NFL schedule and the Pittsburgh Steelers are hosting the Green Bay Packers at Acrisure Stadium for a Sunday Night Football primetime matchup. Here’s how you can watch the game. 

Pittsburgh (4-2) hosts Green Bay (4-1-1) tonight as the Steelers look to bounce back from last week’s road loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday Night Football.  Meanwhile, the Packers have won two straight games, beating Cincinnati and Arizona. 

The Steelers had won three straight games before their loss to the Bengals, Pittsburgh’s seventh straight Thursday night road loss to an AFC North opponent.

Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will face his former team for the first time since leaving Green Bay, where he spent the first 18 seasons of his NFL career, winning one Super Bowl title and four MVP awards.

Rodgers spoke earlier this week about facing Green Bay for the first time, saying he doesn’t view it as a revenge game.

“I don’t have any animosity toward the organization,” he said. “Obviously, I wish that things had been better in our last year there, but I have a great relationship with a lot of people still in that organization, and this is not a revenge game for me. I’m just excited to see some of those guys and be on ‘Sunday Night Football’ again.”  

So far this season, Rodgers has thrown for 1,270 yards with 14 touchdowns and 5 interceptions through six games with the Steelers.

Quarterback Jordan Love has had a productive season for the Packers with 1,438 yards, 10 touchdowns, and only two interceptions on the year.
