Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the top storylines from Week 9 in the NFL.
Sports Seriously
A pair of teams that have surprised fans through nine weeks will face off this weekend as the Washington Commanders play host to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
In a sense, these teams have reached first-place in their respective divisions despite incredibly different philosophies. The Washington Commanders have decimated opponents with a strong offense. While their defense has improved, it’s been the wizardry of rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels that has elevated this team to Super Bowl contenders.
On the other side, the Steelers have relied on a strong defense throughout the season’s entirety, and they have just started to put themselves together on offense with Russell Wilson at quarterback. In essence, these teams are playing each other at their peaks, which should make for an incredible matchup.
Here are our experts’ predictions for this Week 10 showdown.

Lorenzo Reyes: Steelers 24, Commanders 17
This will be a fascinating matchup. Washington has been a surprise this season behind Jayden Daniels, but they lack a signature win against a clear contender. The Steelers present a tough test, a defense that prides itself on physicality, and an offense finding its way with Russell Wilson under center. I do like this Commanders team, but I’m leaning on experience in this matchup.
Tyler Dragon: Commanders 23, Steelers 21
Both the Steelers and Commanders were active prior to the trade deadline as they eye playoff pushes. Mike Williams should boost Pittsburgh’s aerial attack and Marshon Lattimore will presumably strengthen Washington’s secondary. But Jayden Daniels’ has been a difference-maker all season. He’ll be just that on Sunday.
Richard Morin: Commanders 20, Steelers 14
This might be the most exciting game of the 1 p.m. ET slate. In fact, the Commanders might be the most exciting NFL team of the season. Although I think Pittsburgh throws Washington some curveballs on defense, the Commanders find a way to win at home.
Jordan Mendoza: Commanders 20, Steelers 17
Pittsburgh might be the best defense Jayden Daniels will have seen so far. Even though the big plays are limited, the Commanders find a way for another victory.
