The Pittsburgh Steelers have exceeded all expectations and so far are leading one of the best divisions in the NFL…the AFC North. Right now, the Steelers are 10-3 and are about to play Saquan Barkley and the high powered offense of the Philadelphia Eagles. The Pittsburgh Steelers have one of the best defenses in the NFL right now. They are #5 in points allowed with 18.3 points allowed per game, They are also #6 in touchdowns allowed per game with 2.1.
Russel Wilson, as a starter, is 7-1. He has beaten teams like the Washington Commanders and Baltimore Ravens. Although the Steelers have the toughest last four game streak in the NFL…playing division rivals Baltimore and Cincinnati, plus division leading teams and Super Bowl level squads like the Chiefs and Eagles. This last stretch will answer the question…can they go all the way?
If the Steelers can win at least three or maybe even all four games, they will emerge as a definite Super Bowl contender.
