The Pittsburgh Steelers once again proved that they don't belong in conversation with the best teams in the AFC this year. The Steelers were entering Week 13 as three-point underdogs against the Buffalo Bills, only to get humiliated in a 26-7 defeat.

Despite owning a 7-3 lead at the half, the Steelers couldn't move the ball on offense and were gashed on the ground by the Bills' rushing attack. Pittsburgh was aided by two first-half turnovers from Buffalo that stalled the Bills' offensive drives (and one led to a touchdown for Pittsburgh).

But the Steelers showed their true colors in the second half.
