The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a do-or-die situation as they face the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday. Previously sitting at 7-4, the Steelers seemed destined for the playoffs, but back-to-back losses against the Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots have put their postseason hopes in jeopardy. Both of these teams have struggled against other opponents this season, with a combined record of 4-20. Now the Steelers sit at 7-6, tied with the Colts. A loss in this game would result in them losing the head-to-head tiebreaker with one of the teams vying for a playoff spot. Adding to the challenge, the Steelers will be starting backup quarterback Mitchell Trubisky in place of Kenny Pickett.
Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals, led by backup Jake Browning, secured an overtime victory against the Minnesota Vikings earlier today. The Bengals overcame an early deficit to win by a score of 27-24.
