NFL Week 15, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider

2. Steelers take down Bills for eighth win in nine games
When January rolls around, if the Pittsburgh Steelers manage to hang on to one of the Wild Card spots in the AFC, this is going to be one dangerous team for any opponent to face.
As previously mentioned, Pittsburgh’s season appeared to be over back at the beginning of October when the team lost four of their first five games, but Mike Tomlin has found a way to help the Steelers become a top contender in the AFC against all odds.
With the Buffalo Bills coming to town for a top Week 15 battle, the Steelers will need to be on top of their game once again to make sure they continue to control their own playoff destiny.
Defeating the Bills will be another difficult challenge, but the Steelers seem to have all the momentum in the world with seven wins over their last eight contests.
Plus, with Pittsburgh ending the season on the road against the Baltimore Ravens, Sunday’s contest against Buffalo is arguably one they can’t afford to lose, meaning this could arguably be viewed as a must-win situation.
The Bills aren’t going to make it easy for the Steelers, especially on defense. But if Pittsburgh does make it eight wins in nine games, this will only build a stronger case over the Steelers being a serious threat in the AFC.
