Steelers Vs Saints Preview: 5 Keys To Victory In Week 7

The Pittsburgh Steelers face the New Orleans Saints in Paris during Week 7 of the NFL season. Pittsburgh enters the international matchup with a 4-2 record tied atop the AFC North, while New Orleans holds a 2-4 record. Writer Tom Mead outlines five crucial strategies for the Steelers to secure a victory over the Saints abroad.

Mead argues Pittsburgh must protect quarterback Aaron Rodgers against pass rushers Chase Young, Carl Granderson, and Cameron Jordan. He also emphasizes establishing a balanced running attack with Jaylen Warren, reversing Pittsburgh's poor third-quarter scoring trends, improving third-down conversions, and containing Saints quarterback Tyler Shough inside the red zone.
