NFL Playoff Preview: Pittsburgh Steelers

Scott Galvin - USA Today Sports

Despite an up and down season, the Steelers managed to make the playoffs. Can they make a run through the weak AFC?

The Steelers biggest issue this season has been keeping all their players on the field. Le’Veon Bell and Martavis Bryant began the season suspended, and in Week 3, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suffered a knee injury, keeping him out until Week 8. Now, even after sneaking into the playoffs, injury still lingers, and the Steelers are preparing to play without running back DeAngelo Williams. Forget building continuity, as the starting Steelers offense has played together less than half the season.
