PITTSBURGH (AP) The Pittsburgh Steelers spent three months shaking off whatever 2020 threw at them. Schedule changes. Injuries to a handful of impact players. The ever-present threat of COVID-19.

So much for that.
Pittsburgh's bid for an unbeaten season is over. Washington's - yes, Washington's - quest for an unlikely division title may just be starting.
