The bye week is over and the Pittsburgh Steelers return to action this Sunday against the Washington Commanders in a game in which both teams face each other as leaders of their respective division and that promises to be a duel. Let’s talk more about the topic.
The Commanders have won seven of their last eight games and the Steelers are coming off 3 consecutive victories, two of them already with Russell Wilson in control of the offense.
It will undoubtedly be an incredible game because the number two offense in points scored (Washington) will face off against the number 2 defense in points allowed on average per game (Pittsburgh).
The matchups will be spectacular, it will be interesting to see how they stop Jayden Daniels, quarterback of the Commanders and who looks to be the offensive rookie of the year without a doubt. Daniels has brought vitality and consistency to this offense and will have his toughest challenge in his professional career, at least to this point, when he faces our defensive unit.
“No matter what video you watch, third downs, red zone, his execution and his mobility are his best factor, whether by design or by extending the play. It is something that we must take into account, it is one of the biggest factors for the “They are a dangerous group” were Mike Tomlin’s words at a press conference.
Particularly, you have to pay attention to the duel between Terry McLaurin and Joey Porter Jr. and another one that catches my attention is Brandon Coleman, a rookie offensive tackle who has had a great season with Washington against TJ Watt and the Steelers pass rush .
Regarding the two new additions of the Steelers, Mike Williams and Preston Smith, it is still not known whether they will participate or not during the next game, it depends on their ability to adapt and understanding of the system.
Receiver Mike Williams will be a nice addition to the unit and will add depth to the position, something that was definitely needed. About Preston Smith, they say that “pass rush is never enough on a team” and he will come to add.
Remember that there will be a watchparty in Monterrey to watch this game and hang out with the entire Steeler family, team legends will go and we will have an extraordinary time watching our team.
