The Steelers appeared to get a handle on things defensively during a three-game winning streak, but the last two weeks have shown few signs of things going well on that side of the ball.
The week started with hope that wide receiver Puka Nacua would return to the Rams lineup and everything remains on track for him to be in the lineup against the Saints.
The Dolphins had their best day of the season in Atlanta in Week 8, but there was no carryover from their 34-10 win over the Falcons to Thursday night's game against the Ravens.
The Ravens haven't dug themselves all the way out of the hole they dug by starting the season 1-5, but winning two games in five days does a pretty good job of changing the narrative.
