Ben Roethlisberger to lead the Steelers to an impressive win, leaving the Broncos in serious danger of finishing second to the Chiefs in the AFC West.

Trump Retains Lead Among GOP Voters Despite Comments on Muslims
He is defending it against calls of unconstitutionality, pointing out that his proposal would apply only to non-U.S. citizens. They also largely agree with Trump that President Obama was not born in America, and many questioned whether he’s Christian.
Ben Roethlisberger just has to be able to contend with one of the league’s top defenses.
Bad-boy pharma CEO Shkreli calls fraud charges ‘baseless’
Ironically, Shkreli who has been in the news mainly due to his price gouging tactics, did not get arrested due to pricing issues. Shkreli seemed calm and cheerful as he ignored or banned negative commenters and chatted with supporters.
This game was a tale of two halves for both teams, as the Steelers put up 21 points after the break. The Denver D needs to come up with one or two turnovers that gives Brock Osweiler’s offense a short field. Thus, the Broncos were penalized for having too many players on the field.
Panthers Still Perfect After Imperfect Win over Giants
The Panthers figure to have their way at Atlanta, assuming head coach Ron Rivera wants to keep the pedal to the metal. Eli found a revitalized Odell Beckham Jr , who seemed to find his rhythm and cool off, for a 40 yard catch and run.
Roethlisberger completed 40 of 55 against the NFL’s No. 1 defense in points (17.3 per game) and total yards (272.3) allowed. Sanders beat up on his former team all game long. Possibly the best linebacker in football right now, Von Miller, will need to continue his dominance against opposing offensive lines in order for the Broncos to have their best chance to shut down the Steelers offense. But the Broncos offense answered back early and often.
While the Broncos will be relying on Osweiler to fire, the Steelers’ defence need to put in their best effort. Generally, a player only gets fined $5,787 for what the Bengals receiver did, but Green got hit with a bigger fine because it was the second time this season he’s sent a ball into the crowd. First, Brock Osweiler led an 85-yard touchdown drive, capped with an 18-yard pass to Demaryius Thomas in the end zone to tie it up at 7-7. Pittsburgh recorded its fourth win in their last five games last week and moved within two games of first-place Cincinnati with a 33-20 victory over the Bengals.
Week 14’s Steelers-Bengals rivalry spilled over from the field into the pocket books of seven players to the tune of more $140,000 in fines, ESPN reported. The Broncos should assume Schofield and left tackle Ryan Harris can use some tight end/chip help from the first play Sunday.
BRONCOS: OUT: S Omar Bolden (hamstring), QB Peyton Manning (foot), LB Lerentee McCray (hamstring), S T.J. Ward (ankle). If Osweiler wants to keep his job through the rest of the season, he must play well week to week.
For a Broncos team that is dealing with injuries and uncertainty at the quarterback position, unseating the Bengals for the second seed and earning a first-round bye in the playoffs could be a huge.
An underrated factor in the Broncos losing to the Oakland Raiders last week was the punting of Marquette King. Despite the Broncos defense, look for Antonio Brown to have another big day at wide receiver.
