The Oakland Raiders hit the road to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in a matchup between two teams near the front of the pack in the AFC in terms of wild-card contention.
Oakland (4-3) is looking to string together their third consecutive win over an AFC opponent to further propel themselves to the top of the wild-card race as the season inches closer to an end, while Pittsburgh (4-4) is looking to bounce-back from a tough loss at home against the undefeated Cincinnati Bengals. Though the playoffs are still weeks away, a win in Pittsburgh will remove all doubts that the Raiders are a playoff contender in 2015.
