Steelers vs. Patriots: Bold Predictions for AFC Championship Game 2017

Patriots Force a Pair of Turnovers


In their last five games on the road, the Steelers have committed just four turnovers (four interceptions, zero lost fumbles), with three of those coming in a snowy game at Buffalo. But while they do a great job of controlling the ball, the Pats have forced 12 takeaways in the last four games and 17 during their eight-game winning streak. Something has to give. Ultimately, if the game script goes according to (my) projection, Pittsburgh will be dropping back a lot, giving the Patriots ample opportunity to pressure Ben Roethlisberger and create a couple of mistakes. We'll say one interception and one strip-sack. (Getty)
