The Denver Broncos host the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday. Here are some things they will need to do against a tough AFC team to get the win.
The Denver Broncos got a win against their divisional rival, the Los Angeles Chargers last week and face another tough test when the Pittsburgh Steelers come to the Mile High City.
The Steeler are not a team that is messing around. They have a six-game win streak going and sit atop the AFC North at 7-2-1. The Broncos, meanwhile, won their first head-to-head matchup with the Chargers but sit at third place in the AFC West at 4-6.
Pittsburgh boasts one of the best offenses in the league during the 2018 season. They have a future hall of fame quarterback in Ben Roethlisberger, the best wide receiver in the game in Antonio Brown, and a gem of a running back they found in the third round of the 2018 draft in James Connor.
Denver, meanwhile, also has a stellar young running back in Phillip Lindsay, who the team signed as an undrafted free agent out of Colorado after the 2018 draft.
Denver intends on getting their second straight victory, while the Steelers aim to improve their record and continue their lead in the AFC North.
