Should Pittsburgh Prioritize DL Or LB To Fix Their Run Defense?

The Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday night in the Wildcard Round of the NFL Playoffs. Many didn’t expect Pittsburgh to make the playoffs given everything that needed to break their way last Sunday to qualify as the seventh and final seed in the AFC. Entering Week 18, Pittsburgh needed to beat the Baltimore Ravens, have the Jacksonville Jaguars beat the Indianapolis Colts, and have the Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders not tie. After a wild sequence of events, all these scenarios broke Pittsburgh’s way, leading to them qualifying for the final playoff spot.
