Hello, all. It's December, and every game is a must-win for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Today at Buffalo is no exception. Here are three things that the Steelers can do to ensure a fourth straight victory.
Key #1: Contain the running game
The Buffalo Bills offense goes through the ground. LeSean McCoy is one of the leagues best runningbacks, and the Steelers run defense is not steller. However, for whatever reason, I don't see McCoy getting anymore than 75 yards today. I can't explain it; it's just a gut feeling. Mark it down.
Odds of execution: Decent
Key #2: O-Line: Step up
The Buffalo Bills have a talented defensive line. The Pittsburgh Steelers have a talented offensive line. Something has to give. It all depends on what version of the Steelers O-Line shows up. If the line plays as they have been during this three-game win streak, they will be okay. If they play as they did during their four-game losing streak, then it could be trouble. I trust that the big bois up front have found themselves, and they will be just fine.
Odds of execution: Solid
Key #3: Ring the Bell
It feels like I am recycling, but next to Ben Roethlisberger, Le'Veon Bell is the most important player on this football team. No disrespect to Antiono Brown, but Bell is the one who makes this offense go. He is able to help this team with both running and catching, and he is the most complete back in football. If Bell lights up Buffalo for 150+ all purpose yards, the Steelers will win this football game.
Odds of execution: Fantastic
Final prediction
The Bills have a decent football team. But the Steelers are boomin in ever facet of the game. This is a runaway train that won't be stopped. At least not today. Normally, this is the type of road game that the Steelers would lose. However, this team is playing to well for me to see that happening.
Steelers 28, Bills 17
