Steelers vs. Ravens: Who the experts are taking in Week 13

The Pittsburgh Steelers will look to upset the Baltimore Ravens on their home field as the experts don’t think it will happen.

The Steelers are coming off one of their worst performances in recent memory. They barely showed up to the Cincinnati stadium last week and it has garnered criticism from all angles. That criticism has come with fair points about this team.

Black and gold fans are used to being perfect and winning ways as they haven’t had a losing season in over a decade. That spoil seems to be coming to an end as the team faces surmounting odds in the stretch run to complete their 2021 regular-season schedule. They have one of the toughest in the NFL and they don’t seem good enough to handle it.

The defense is the biggest shocker when it comes to why this team is struggling. Everyone knew the offense would have issues along the way but this defense is playing well below what many expected to still be a top unit in the league.

Injuries and covid concerns have led to many disadvantages across the NFL and now they sit as a team looking in from the outside. Experts are starting to dislike Pittsburgh in their projections and fans should expect that from here on out. This is a struggling team that has a very small chance at making the playoffs.

They just have too many flaws and inconsistencies to defeat the opponents this week and in the coming weeks. It might get ugly for the black and gold but it shouldn’t come as a surprise. The offense is stale and ineffective while the defense can’t cause turnovers and it’s a revolving door of injuries and starters missing the action.
