When the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Cleveland Browns this weekend, they understand this is a game they cannot lose and still think in terms of the playoffs. But after losing to the browns 21-7 in the last matchup, what has to change to turn those results around?
It has to start with these four guys. Here are the four Steelers who must step up this week.
RB Benny Snell
Last week, once the run game got going it was because of Snell. The last times these two teams squared off, running backs only mustered 43 rushing yards. With James Conner almost certainly still out of action this week and Jaylen Samuels seemingly out of the mix for carries, it is Snell or nothing if the running back hopes to succeed.
