Sunday football ends with a matchup between two 2-3 teams. The Seattle Seahawks placed QB Russell Wilson on IR this week after he suffered a finger injury that required surgery. That means Geno Smith will start his first game since 2017. The Steelers are still sticking with Ben Roethlisberger. They are currently sitting at the bottom of the AFC North, and their season needs to turn around quickly if they want one last shot at the playoffs with Big Ben.
