We are just the team to offer a trap to Pitt. If the D play as well as they did against Dallas then I feel its ours to lose, but the O can't make mistakes. and we have to take a chance downfield. If there's any weakness in their D it's there. I'm not too scared of their O but they have good WR's as Redskins247 noted, so we have to play tight pass D in the deep make pressure pay up front. Their run O even if Conner plays, isn't scary, but we know it's a bit of a weakness on our D.

The Ravens pretty much ran out of steam allowing them to run out the clock last night, but the Steelers barely crawled over the line in the end. That last drive to chew the clock looked a bit desperate; passing on early downs with the lead and just 2:30 on the clock, even if it was mainly to the flat? No trust in their run game. Force them to pass, where our strength lies, and chew up the clock on O to keep Big Ben off the field.

Do all that and I'd go 20-19 WFT.
