Huge game, I’m worried about Wilson. That said Birds at home win 24-20.

I don’t love it

Dulac posted that Pickens will miss the game then promptly deleted it and replaced it with this.

Wilson is playing at a very high level, and Muth has become a legit scoring threat with Wilson behind C. Also like the 1-2 punch in the running game behind a VERY young and improving OL. All that said, if Pickens is a no-go, it’ll be hard to stretch the field and generate enough O to outscore Philly. So…..

23-17 Stillers w/ GP
20-13 Eagles w/o GP

Yeah I think the inside run game that the Steelers have been gashing teams with lately will be a no go with Jalen Carter on the other side. I think Russ is going have to dink and dunk then take a few shots to move the ball. Not ideal but the defense has been bailing them out all year. #1 scoring defense and leading the league in interceptions.

Steelers starting DT and run-stuffing S out on Sunday along with GP has me adjusting my pick…
Barkley - 42
Steelers - 9

I don't know. Is Wilson better then Lamar Jackson? I think Fangio has the defense prepared to stop whatever the Steelers do on offense. The Eagles offense is a bit schizo at times like they sucked last week against the Panthers but the week against the rat birds they were pretty good. I am thinking a low scoring game and Elliot being inconsistent this season is also concerning. 15-12 Eagles although it could be 15-12 Steelers. I hate when my favorite team plays my 2nd favorite team. Go Steagles!!!

Steelers need them for the final 3 games - Ravens, Chiefs and Bengals. I get the feeling they are OK sitting them this week and taking the loss.
I hope you’re right. Honestly, they only have to beat the ratbirds next week to clinch the division. Still can’t get over how badly the nfl screwed the Stillers with this schedule.
