Sunday’s game against Detroit is important for the Steelers to stay ahead of the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.
The Steelers are a touchdown underdog, and Steelers legend and WPXI Steelers analyst Jerome Bettis talked about what the Steelers need to do to get the upset win on Sunday.
“The only way the Steelers win this game, if they can slow the game down,” Bettis said. “The Steelers offense has to be potent. They have to run the football, and when they get into the red zone, they have to score touchdowns, not field goals.”
