Injury Notes: The loss of T.J. Watt, who has had a pedestrian season by most accounts, is still a massive loss. His ability to help shut down the run cannot be valued enough… The Steelers are 1-11 all-time when Watt doesn’t play… If Harmon and Washington can go that would be a huge plus in this one.
