Week 15 Patriots at Steelers preview: It’s been a long, long time since the Steelers beat the Patriots

With both teams coming off of brutal week 14 losses, this Sunday’s match up carries all of the importance that we thought it would when the schedule was released earlier this year. The Patriots can wrap up the AFC East with a win and a Dolphins loss or tie, and keep possession of the AFC’s two seed. A Steelers win would keep them atop the AFC North, and would keep them from potentially joining the scrum for the sixth playoff spot in the conference.

  • The Patriots defense’s top priority hasn’t changed.
  • There has been a defensive scheme change in Pittsburgh.
