Pittsburgh Steelers: 5 players to watch against the New Orleans Saints

The Pittsburgh Steelers are home one final time in the regular season, taking on the New Orleans Saints in a game these five players need to make themselves known.

The NFC belongs to New Orleans, who have the title locked in with a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The AFC is still up for grabs, and despite chances being slim, the Steelers are still searching to climb up the ladder with two games remaining in the regular season.

They’re coming off their biggest win of the season and a must-win performance over the New England Patriots. Now, they’ll take on an even bigger test in the Superdome as they look to secure the AFC North title and possibly move up in the conference before the postseason.

It won’t come easy as the Saints continue to prove their one of the best in the league. The Steelers will need to use every weapon they have, starting with these five stars. If they can execute well, slaying the NFC’s top dog won’t be as challenging as it seems on paper.

Pittsburgh is still one of the most talented rosters in the NFL, even if they don’t play like it every week. As the playoffs inch closer, their time to struggle is over. Now, they need to show they can beat anyone in the league, starting with the Patriots and continuing with the Saints.

If these five players come through with a big game, handing the Saints their third loss of the season won’t be as challenging as some may think.
