Coach Mike Tomlin has led the Pittsburgh Steelers to a fairytale run in 2020. Ben Roethlisberger and Co. remain unbeaten in the league with a perfect record heading into Week 13. They are in line to match the 2007 New England Patriots record of going an entire regular season without a loss.
They will face-off against an inconsistent Washington Football Team led by quarterback Kyle Allen. Despite their win against fellow NFC East strugglers Dallas Cowboys in Week 12, Ron Rivera’s boys will start the weekend as clear underdogs.
Here’s a detailed look at both teams, along with injury updates and Week 13 Game Day predictions.
