The Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers look to extend their win streak to five against the AFC West Division leading Denver Broncos tonight in a key AFC matchup that could decide home field advantage for one of these two teams.

The Pittsburgh Steelers offense will have to great tonight to win this game at Mile High Stadium. The Denver Broncos defense is ranked #1 in the NFL and Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will have to spread the ball around to his usual cast of characters.

Running back Rashard Mendenhall may need to have a huge game for the Steelers to win this game because Broncos star defensive end and AFC sack leader Elvis Dumervil can’t wait to get to Roethlisberger so he can add to his sack total for the year.

Wide Receivers Hines Ward and Santonio Holmes also need to have big games but I believe the key rookie wide receiver and return man Mike Wallace because he can be a great third option for Roethlisberger but most importantly, he can alter field position in the return game.

The Steelers defense has come lately, especially since the return of all-pro safety and defensive captain safety Troy Polamalu. The Steelers seems to have risen from the dead since his return and should be able handle the Broncos offense.

Prediciton: Pittsburgh Steelers 21, Denver Broncos 17
