The Steelers opened the year with some tough offensive play and they lost the first four games without any being that close apart from the one at the end with the Vikings in London and they pulled together over the bye week to win two straight games against the Jets and the Ravens and they now come in with the 12th best passing offense with over 250 yards per game and their rushing game as been better, but it still is ranked 27th in the league with less than 80 yards per game and they will have to do much more than that against a solid Raiders defense that has been much tougher up front this year than last season.
