The Pittsburgh Steelers won their third consecutive game against the New Orleans Saints in Paris on Sunday. With the longest win streak in the AFC North, you would think the Steelers are leading the division. Well, Pittsburgh sits in second place with a 5-2 record, which is tied with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns have the tiebreaker over Pittsburgh because of their win on Thursday Night Football over the Steelers in Week 4.
The Steelers’ run defense was stingy on Sunday, allowing only 18 rushing
yards. Next week provides an opportunity for the Steelers to take over the division with a home matchup against the Browns. The run defense will need to be as stingy and force the Browns offense to be one-dimensional. The division is there for the taking.
Here is Monday’s Three Rivers Report.
