Week 13 Primer: Steelers (6-5) vs. Giants (8-3)

Our weekly primer feature is an early look at the upcoming Steelers game.

Preview

The Giants, led by rookie head coach Ben McAdoo, have won six consecutive games and have the NFC’s second-best record at 8-3. Last week, the Giants knocked off the Browns 27-13 at Cleveland. Defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul had a career-high three sacks, a forced fumble and a 43-yard fumble-return touchdown in the win. He is the first player with at least three sacks and a 40+ yard fumble-return touchdown in the same game since 1982, the first year individual sacks became an official statistic.

The Steelers defeated Indianapolis 28-7 on Thanksgiving night as quarterback Ben Roethlisberger threw three touchdown passes to wide receiver Antonio Brown. Brown leads the NFL with 82 receptions this season and is tied for the league lead with 10 touchdown catches.
