Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Atlanta Falcons: Players to Watch

The Pittsburgh Steelers got a much-needed win last Sunday when they defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 42-21.  It was an impressive performance against the AFC North leaders as they out-gained the Bengals in yards, forced two turnovers, had a longer time of possession, less penalties, and got three sacks while allowing zero.  The Steelers are currently the AFC’s fifth seed, so they control their playoff destiny with three weeks to go.  Up next is the 5-8, NFC South leading, Atlanta Falcons in the Georgia Dome.  The Steelers have had their fair share of trouble with the dreadful NFC South and losing teams in general, so this game has the potential of going either way despite the fact that the Steelers are the better team.  Here are a few players to watch for on Sunday.
