The Pittsburgh Steelers follow their Bye Week with a stingy opponent in a talented, young Washington Commanders side. Rookie quarterback phenom, Jayden Daniels, has been putting on a show for nine weeks, leading his Commanders to a 7-2 record. This puts them atop the NFC East, a division nearly everyone projected them to finish third or even last in.
The Steelers have their own unique path to a 6-2 record. The former question marks at quarterback have now become exclamation points, with both playing solid football through nine weeks. Russell Wilson seems to have taken the reigns with compelling performances against the two New York sides.
