Despite a negative point differential, being outgained and having fewer plays run than their opponent in every single game this season, and only winning close, one-score contests, the Pittsburgh Steelers are 6-3 through nine games. They’re sandwiched into second place in a rough and tumble AFC North, the best division in football, and one that will certainly go down to the wire.
When the dust settles, former running back turned NFL analyst Maurice Jones-Drew is confident the Steelers will come out on top. He made the claim on NFL Gameday Sunday night.
“I’m here to tell the world and the people, the Pittsburgh Steelers are gonna win this division,” Jones-Drew said.
