Pittsburgh is in the top 5 ranked best NFL teams thus far
Denver is the biggest problem when it comes to playing a team that usually has success against NE
If Pittsburgh beats Denver that means 2 losses at home for Denver and I would say it would make it very tough for Denver to make a run at the playoffs with all the talented teams above them and that would nearly eliminate any chance to meet them barring a great second half of the season should they get hot.
If Pittsburgh wins, it keeps them in good order for a chance at a high playoff spot possibly staying close in contention for 1 of the 2 playoff bye seeds with a very good second half showing
Its just week 7 but I think you will know in the very obvious AFC,who is going to stay around and who is going to fade as every week goes by from now on more so than the other conference,so this game is a big game more for Denver to stay alive with any hopes of the division title than for Pittsburgh who can lose and still control that weak division with Baltimore the only team worthy of challenging by the latter part of the season
The AFC West will likely have only ONE playoff team and SD already has the edge.
So who do you want to win this one?
