As much as any franchise in the NFL the Pittsburgh Steelers expect to win. As a result last year do not sit well with the franchise but with no overly dominant team in the division right now there is no reason they can not reverse their fortune and get back on top of the division this season.
The Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) beat the Bills (19-16) last week at Heinz Field. The Philadelphia Eagles (0-2) offense looked great last week, but the defense was horrendous in a loss to the Patriots (42-35).
The Pittsburgh Steelers weathered a litany of roster moves during the offseason following a disappointing 8-8 season, and now hope that all of that roster turnover will lead to wins on the field.
The Pittsburgh Steelers head into the 2014 season looking to rebound from what was viewed as a disappointing 8-8 season last year – their second straight .500 season.
The Steelers got off to a dreadful start last season, looking very old in the process. In the second half something clicked as they went 6-2 but they are still lacking in a lot of key areas – they could probably go best available the whole draft and it wouldn’t be a bad strategy.
Steelers Continue Improbable March Toward Playoffs – Host Browns in Week 17
It is hard to believe but the Pittsburgh Steelers are still alive in the AFC playoff picture. They will need a win Sunday and a lot of help but the fact that they are still standing is a testament to this team.
Green Bay will aim to extend its string of 13 consecutive regular-season home game wins in December or January, when they host the Steelers on Sunday at Lambeau Field.
When: Sunday, Dec. 22, 2013 at 4:25 p.m. EST

It will be the first meeting between the Packers and Steelers since Green Bay’s 31-25 victory in Super Bowl XLV three years ago.
The Steelers (6-8) haven’t been eliminated from the postseason yet, and after a second half season surge, find themselves just two games out of the final AFC playoff spot.
Despite its sub .500 record, Pittsburgh has played well, losing four games by a touchdown or less, including a 34-28 defeat to Miami two weeks ago. However, the Steelers rebounded to kept their playoff hopes alive with a 30-20 win over division rival Cincinnati last week.
[soliloquy id=”82219″]
Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger needs just 85 passing yards to reach 4,000 for the third time in his career, and has played well against Green Bay, throwing for a career-best 503 yards and three TDs in his only previous regular-season meeting with the Packers.
Defensively, Pittsburgh has been unpredictable, but was excellent last week, holding the Bengals to 279 total yards. They will however, be tested by the Packers, who despite being without quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who broke his collarbone in Week 9, have rode a steady wave of rookie running back Eddie Lacy all the way to a chance at the NFC North title.
Lacy, who has rushed for 1,028 yards and eight scores, will be a huge factor in this matchup, as Rodgers’ status is still yet to be determined for Sunday’s contest.
In the meantime, Green Bay (7-6-1) has soldiered on without their captain, bouncing back from a 26-3 halftime deficit to beat Dallas last week behind a solid effort from backup quarterback Matt Flynn, who threw four touchdown passes against the Cowboys.
Nevertheless, if Green Bay wants to stamp its title ticket, it will need an appearance from the defense that shut down Dallas last week.
The Packers have won their final regular-season home game in eight straight seasons and 20 of the last 21 and in one of the biggest games of the year for both teams, I expect them to get it done at home with a steady dose of Lacy, and maybe a slim possibility of a shot or two of Rodgers.
Regardless, Green Bay gets it done.

AFC North Takes center Stage – Steelers Host Bengals on Sunday Night
It’s hard to believe that half way through December and the Steelers are out of the playoff race! But there are still three games remaining for Pittsburgh and one of them comes our way Sunday night against heated, hated rivals Cincinnati who are poised to make the playoffs for the third straight year and look like a lock to win the always-competitive AFC North.
These teams were opposites last week. The Pittsburgh Steelers took a hit with their loss to Baltimore while Miami put themselves in good position with a victory over the New York Jets.
The Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers are set to clash on Thanksgiving night in a battle of 5-6 teams. These AFC North rivals have put on some of the more entertaining defensive battles in recent memory, and with a national audience Thursday should be no different.
The Pittsburgh Steelers will make the trip out to FirstEnergy Stadium in Ohio on Sunday to take on the Cleveland Browns.
