Go Giants! For as tough as that sounds, New England will side with the NFC in this one. | 8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN
Oliver Thomas: Mike Tomlin’s decision to make a quarterback change at 4-2 was about the little things. And those little things got the Steelers to 5-2 with ease. Russell Wilson looked in command of the huddle in his debut. You knew he would. But the veteran starter also looked decisive over the final three quarters. He put the ball up to where only Pat Freiermuth and George Pickens could get it, too. | Steelers 24, Giants 13
Brian Hines: For as puzzling as the decision to go with Russell Wilson over Justin Fields looked at the time, it was the right button pressed by Mike Tomlin. That success should continue over against a struggling Giants team as T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith give Daniel Jones fits along the edge. | Steelers 23, Giants 13
