The Steelers B-team managed to hold off a late effort from the Browns, which doesn’t tell us much about what Pittsburgh has going for it heading into the postseason.
Instead, we’re awaiting a healthy return of wide receiver Antonio Brown (calf), who missed the past few weeks. He’ll be a welcomed addition for quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, along with rookie wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster, who has come on as of late.
Pair that with a ready-to-go Le’Veon Bell, and Pittsburgh’s offense is scary.
There remain some question marks on defense, particularly with linebacker Ryan Shazier’s absence, as he recovers from his horrible back injury. But if the offense can make up for the deficiencies, we should see Pittsburgh in the AFC Championship game.
