The New England Patriots will host the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Week 2, with both teams viewed as AFC playoff hopefuls. The Patriots are coming off a loss in Seattle, per Pats Pulpit, while the Steelers enter with a 1-0 record.
Quarterback Drake Maye and the Patriots offense will face a significant test against Pittsburgh's defense, ESPN noted. ESPN also reported that New England wants Maye to be patient but aggressive in the matchup.
The Steelers have recent success in this series: Pittsburgh defeated New England 21-14 a year ago by generating five turnovers against Maye and the Patriots offense, per Yahoo Sports. The game will be broadcast on Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium.
