These are the keys to victory for the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 against the Pittsburgh Steelers

The last two times the Buffalo Bills have played the Pittsburgh Steelers, it has been with serious playoff implications on the line. In 2019, the Bills traveled to Pittsburgh and with a win secured a Wild Card spot in the playoffs.

This past season, the Bills didn’t secure a playoff berth with a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers (they would do that the following week against the Broncos). However, the win over the Steelers was essentially the deciding factor in getting the two seed with the Steelers entering the playoffs as the three seed.

It remains to be seen if this game will have playoff implications at the end of the year but if the Buffalo Bills want to extend their win streak to three over the Pittsburgh Steelers, these are three keys to victory in Week 1.
