Steelers return to full strength in time for a playoff push

Injuries have hit hard this season for the Pittsburgh Steelers on the offensive end of things, it started with Eric Ebron going down early while James Conner and Alejandro Villanueva following suit. Pittsburgh would get back pieces every now and again, just getting their starting Tight End back last week, but will finally be full strengh again heading into their week 14 battle with the Buffalo Bills

Timing could not be more perfect to add back a threat on the ground like James Conner with the passing game looking to take a turn for the better. Last week in a win over the Washington Football Team, Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had himself a day, tossing for over 400 yards and finding the endzone a total of 5 times.

'We're just finally hitting our stride after being in a massive slump," said Ben during his mid week presser. "It's good to have the family together again as we look to finish out strong."

Pittsburgh will run into some favourable match ups on paper to end the season, but with only four games remaining they'll need some dominoes to fall into place for them to make a post-season appearance.

"The AFC as a whole has just housed some really good teams this year," said Steelers HC Jordan Charles. "We stumbled out of the gate a little bit this year, but that's no excuse, we have a shot and we're going to take it."

The Steelers will find themselves matched up against the Cincinnati Bengals, Indianapolis Colts and Cleveland Browns to close things out following their game tonight against the Bills.
