Steelers vs. Titans: 7 things to know about Week 15 game

The Titans can put a dent in the Steelers’ already shaky playoff hopes with a win in Week 15.

The Tennessee Titans (9-4) and Pittsburgh Steelers (6-6-1) will meet in Week 15 at Heinz Field for a matchup between two teams vying for playoff contention.

The Titans come into this game fresh off a Week 14 shutout win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The victory not only snapped Tennessee’s two-game losing streak and guaranteed their sixth straight winning season, it also put them in position to clinch the AFC South in Week 15 (more on that later).

The Steelers, on the other hand, are struggling to stay in contention for the playoffs. Pittsburgh has lost three of its last four, including a Week 14 loss versus the Minnesota Vikings by a score of 36-28.

Tennessee enters this game sitting in the No. 2 seed, while the Steelers are clinging to fading playoff hopes in the No. 11 spot.

With days to go before this all-important matchup, let’s take a look at seven things to know about the upcoming contest.
