The Saints proved in Week 15 that they certainly can be beat. The Steelers proved they can certainly beat anyone. But as they square off against each other, they’ll be hunting for two different outcomes for their playoff futures.
For the Saints, a win over the Steelers locks them in as the top seed in the NFC. Homefield advantage goes a long way, especially when you’re thinking about meeting the LA Rams before the Super Bowl.
In Pittsburgh, they’re simply looking to keep their AFC North title in check. A win this week would all but seal the deal as they take on the injured Cincinnati Bengals in their final regular season game.
