As the 2024 NFL season heads into its final stretch, the Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves in the thick of the AFC playoff race. Through Week 10, the Steelers stand firmly as the No. 3 seed in the AFC. If the playoffs were today, Pittsburgh would face the L.A. Chargers, a team they defeated 20-10 in Week 3.
Led by a resurgent defense anchored by T.J. Watt and a developing offense, the Steelers have demonstrated their ability to grind out tough wins, relying on a mix of veteran leadership and young talent.
We all know the Steelers’ defense has what it takes to win playoff games. The offense remains a work in progress, but the sky is the limit with the veteran leadership of Russell Wilson and his connection with George Pickens to generate big plays.
Najee Harris, playing like we’ve never seen before, is on pace for a career season. And despite injuries to key players, the offensive line has improved as the season progressed. This balanced approach has allowed the Steelers to maintain control in close games, a crucial factor in their playoff push.
The upcoming four-game stretch — all AFC North matchups — will define Pittsburgh’s season.
