NFL Playoff Predictions: Pittsburgh Steelers Set to Dismantle Tebow and Broncos

Yes, it's clear James Harrison is smelling Bronco blood.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4) and Denver Broncos (8-8) are set to square off in a Wild Card Game that has the Steelers as heavy favorites.

Despite playing on the road against one of the league's better defenses and a QB that puts together fourth-quarter heroics in Tim Tebow, the Steelers have the clear advantage in this game at Invesco Field at Mile High.

The Broncos are a team that rely heavily on the run when it comes to controlling the game on offense.

Essentially, the Broncos feature two solid running backs in both Tim Tebow and Willis McGahee, as Tebow is a QB that runs the ball often each time he takes the field.

Yet despite continued success running the football throughout the regular season, the team has been unable to produce wins in their last three outings.

The Broncos are a team that have struggled mightily on offense, but not because they have not run the ball well. The fact of the matter is that the Broncos constantly run the football and the yards will come regardless with the countless rushing plays that the team runs each game.

What makes or breaks this team's chances is their ability to finish off drives with points. It is the one thing the team hasn't been able to do in its recent losses. With a combined 40 points in the team's last three outings, there has been an evident lack of production on the offensive end.

Since the 23-point game in the loss to the New England Patriots, the Broncos have put up just 20 points in two games against the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.

The other factor will be the fact that the Pittsburgh Steelers have won five of their last six games, making a strong push as they enter postseason play. A defense that has played well as of late will continue to dominate an offense that has proven to grow weaker in its last several outings.
