Pittsburgh Steelers (11-1) at Buffalo Bills (9-3)
Sunday, December 13, 8:20PM ET
It’s official — the last undefeated team in 2020 has tasted defeat for the first time. The Pittsburgh Steelers are now 11-1, and the 1972 Miami Dolphins can rest easy knowing they’ll remain the only undefeated team in NFL history for at least one more year.
Regardless of what happened in Week 13, the Steelers have another game to look forward to in Week 14. And that involves a matchup with the Buffalo Bills, a team that is rearing to improve its standing in the AFC. After suffering their first defeat of 2020, could the Steelers be in for another unwelcome surprise? I think so…
The Bills are coming off a dominant victory against the 49ers, during which Josh Allen further displayed his ability to shred secondaries and take over games. Although having a plethora of playmaking weapons like Stefon Diggs helps, it’s clear the young quarterback is coming into his own while leading a promising Buffalo squad.
While both of these teams are well equipped, I wouldn’t be surprised if Pittsburgh is still reeling from its scheduling nightmare and first loss of the season. They come into this game unprepared mentally, and watch Allen work his magic against one of the top defenses in the league, inching the Bills closer to the top of the conference.
Prediction: Bills win 34-28
