PITTSBURGH, PA (WKZO AM/FM) – The NFL’s coldest team meets one of the league’s hottest squads when the Lions visit the Steelers at Heinz Field. Detroit is coming off of its bye week at 0-8 after a 44-6 blowout loss against Philadelphia on Halloween.
The Lions have scored less than 20 points in their last seven games, and they have the second-worst scoring defense in the NFL. The 5-3 Steelers have a four-game winning streak after they beat the Bears 29-27 on Monday night. Najee Harris has been dominant in his rookie season with 830 total yards and six scores.
Defensively, only the Broncos and the Bills have allowed fewer points than the Steelers in the AFC.
The Steelers haven’t lost to the Lions at home since 1955.
