Steelers vs. Patriots: top players to watch

Aaron Rodgers will once again look to DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman after a big performance from both this past Sunday.

TJ Watt will be coming in hot, having been named AFC Defensive Player of the Week after tallying up two sacks against the Falcons.

Patriots

Drake Maye will need to reset after three interceptions against the Seahawks.

Mack Hollins and Rhamondre Stevenson will probably need to hold down the fort, receiving- and rushing-wise, with TreVeyon Henderson questionable and A.J. Brown out injured.

On the defensive side, Christian Gonzalez, Milton Williams, and Kevin Byard will be the players to watch for.

Matchups that could decide the Steelers vs. Patriots game

A few factors could tip this game either way:

• Drake Maye vs. Steelers defensive line: Maye was sacked three times on Wednesday, while Pittsburgh's defense had four sacks on Sunday. It will be a tough game for Maye if his offensive line does not get it together.
• Both Patriots and Steelers rushing game: None of the teams had great rushing stats; the Patriots' second-highest rusher was Maye with 47 yards, while Jaylen Warren had the most for the Steelers with 46. Whoever figures out their rushing game will have the advantage on Sunday.
• A.J. Brown out: A heavy loss for New England, after A.J. Brown left the game against the Seahawks with an injury that will have him out for at least four weeks. The Patriots will hope Hollins, Hunter Henry and Romeo Doubs can fill in admirably.

Steelers vs. Patriots: prediction

DAZN News NFL writer Ana Gonzalez

Steelers 28-21 Patriots

While it's a home game for New England, the Steelers are already finding ways to win, whereas the Patriots are still searching for answers.

With New England's offensive line struggling, the Steelers' pass rush should have plenty of chances to force the issue.
