Steelers vs. Patriots: 3 Keys to a Black-and-gold victory

Related Topics: Brandin Cooks

A side-by-side comparison of the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots with regard to talent at key offensive positions doesn’t reveal a glaring advantage for either team in their upcoming, Week-14 matchup on Sunday at Heinz Field. Tom Brady comes into the game as the NFL’s No. 1 quarterback in passing yardage with 3,865 yards. But Ben Roethlisberger is hot on his heels at No. 2 in passing yardage with 3,744 yards despite this season hardly being one of Ben’s better efforts as a pro. At wide receiver, while Antonio Brown leads the NFL pack with 1,509 yards, the Patriots counter with their dynamic duo of Brandin Cooks (924 yards) and Rob Gronkowski (849 yards).
