It’s been a rollercoaster season for the Pittsburgh Steelers to this point, from the highs of being 7-4 and looking like a team ready to take off on a run, to sitting at 7-7 following three straight embarrassing losses, putting the season in jeopardy. Now, things are looking up again as the Steelers are 9-7 entering Week 18 and staring down a potential playoff berth.
Winners of two straight, the Steelers look like they’ve turned a corner, especially on offense, as the insertion of quarterback Mason Rudolph into the lineup has given the Steelers a much-needed spark. They’ve scored 30+ points in both games and gotten a number of explosive plays through the passing game with Rudolph under center.
