The Pittsburgh Steelers lost their grip on their playoff destiny last week after failing to the Seahawks on the west coast 39-30. The loss dropped them to 6-5 on the season and now in a group of five teams competing for two wildcard slots with the same record.
Tonight’s game is one of two remaining at home, so the Steelers cannot afford to squander this opportunity if they hope to make the postseason this year—not that they can afford to lose any more games from here on out without getting some kind of outside help.
Presumably the one thing more than any other that Steelers fans will be looking for in this game is the cornerback position.
