The Steelers were roused from their slumber in the wee hours by a prank fire alarm at their Boston-area hotel - something other NFL players, including Denver All-Pro cornerback Chris Harris Jr. found curiously familiar .
And the Packers had to ride buses to Milwaukee to catch their flight to Atlanta because of dense fog in Green Bay.
Maybe these disruptions in routine had something to do with their stumbles in the conference championship games Sunday when the sleepy Steelers ignored Chris Hogan all day and the foggy Packers abandoned the run right from the start.
