The Pittsburgh Steelers host the Baltimore Ravens in a winner-take-all game for the AFC North title and the final playoff spot on Sunday night. Former NFL cornerback Aqib Talib warned that the Steelers have 'no chance' if Ravens running back Derrick Henry's hot streak persists. With key injuries on both sides, the outcome hinges on defensive performances and offensive execution.
Analysts Albert Breer and Connor Orr believe the Pittsburgh Steelers should consider selecting an edge rusher in the first round of the NFL draft. They cite T.J. Watt's age and recent performance dip as reasons to build depth. However, the team already boasts a strong group of pass rushers.

CBS Sports analyst Ryan Wilson argued that edge rusher ranks among the Pittsburgh Steelers' top needs ahead of the NFL draft. He suggested drafting Clemson defensive end T.J. Parker at No. 21 overall is a reasonable idea. Wilson highlighted concerns about the position's future depth on Pittsburgh's roster.
Former Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Steven Nelson attributes T.J. Watt's reduced production this season to the team's defensive scheme. Nelson, who played with Watt in 2019 and 2020, called for Watt to be 'freed' from the current setup amid the Steelers' defensive struggles. Watt has recorded seven sacks through 12 games, on pace for his lowest total in a healthy season since his rookie year.
