=14.0ptThe top matchup of the day slate of games on Sunday will feature the 7-2 Washington Commanders hosting the 6-2 Pittsburgh Steelers. It will be a total clash of styles as the Commanders have the 3rd highest scoring team in the league (29.2ppg) while the Steelers lean on their defense which is 2nd in the league in points allowed (14.9ppg). Washington is currently on a 3-game winning streak. Their latest win came over the New York Giants on the road last week. Leading rookie of the year candidate, Jayden Daniels was efficient in that game. He threw for just over 200 yards while completing nearly 70% of his passes and tossed 2 touchdowns without a turnover. He added another 35 yards on 8 carries. The Steelers are also on a 3-game winning streak. They are coming off their bye week but defeated the same New York Giant team the week prior for their latest win. Najee Harris led the way with 114 yards on 19 carries, while Russell Wilson threw for 278 yards and a score. The defense did allow nearly 400 total yards but kept the Giants under 20 points, which has been the case in every Steelers win this season. In their 2 losses, they allowed 27 points to the Colts and 20 points to the Cowboys.
