The Pittsburgh Steelers are internet hosting one other primetime matchup in opposition to a New York staff, this time in opposition to the Giants on Monday Night time Soccer. The Steelers have an extended historical past of performing properly on Monday Night time Soccer, particularly at dwelling. With a win, the Steelers will advance to 6-2 getting into their bye week, and since the Cleveland Browns upset the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, they’d maintain down first place within the AFC North.
The Giants are struggling but once more with Brian Daboll and Daniel Jones, however they did beat the Seattle Seahawks a pair weeks in the past and have proven flashes of fine play. Rookie WR Malik Naber has been every little thing that he was marketed to be an extra, and may give the Steelers some points immediately together with Darius Slayton.
The largest factor to observe will likely be Dexter Lawrence in opposition to this younger inside offensive line. Zach Frazier continues to be out, which suggests Ryan McCollum will likely be seeing loads of the NFL’s present sack chief. It isn’t usually a nostril sort out leads the league in sacks, and he’s very prone to be the primary to double digits this season later tonight. Mike Tomlin mentioned they higher be ready to place 4 fingers on him, so Isaac Seumalo and Mason McCormick may also be tasked with slowing him down.
The Giants’ cornerbacks are fairly beat up and the depth is razor skinny for tonight, so Russell Wilson may have an awesome probability to construct off his stellar debut every week in the past. Justin Fields is inactive with the emergency third quarterback designation resulting from a hamstring harm suffered in observe.
