Identifying the X-Factors for the Steelers in Week 13 vs. the Browns

The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing for the Cleveland Browns in Week 13 at Heinz Field. It is the first time the Steelers’ have been back home after the past two weeks, and they are trying to win their seventh game in the 2019 regular season.

When looking at the matchup between AFC North rivals, there are players who can be viewed as ‘X-Factors’.

What is an ‘X-Factor’?

I would describe an ‘X-Factor’ as a player who can truly alter the outcome of the game, single-handedly. Not just a plug and play type player, but a player who always has to be accounted for, no matter what.
