Steelers' Defense Ready to Rebound vs. Ravens, Lamar Jackson? | Can Russell Wilson Adjust QB Vision?

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo, Steelers reporter for the Athletic.

The Pittsburgh Steelers face the Baltimore Ravens Saturday and will attempt to bounce back from their loss to the Ravens just weeks ago. Christopher Carter and Mike DeFabo think the defense has better answers for Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, but will it be enough to get a win? The keys could come down to Cam Heyward and the defensive line winning the middle of the trenches and Joey Porter Jr. leading a strong man coverage defense. 

Also, Chris and Mike discuss what Russell Wilson to adjust to how defenses have played him over the last month. Can Wilson engineer the offense to take advantage of what the Ravens think he won't do--use intermediate passing concepts? George Pickens, Pat Freiermuth, Calvin Austin, Mike Williams and Darnell Washington all need to be part of the Arthur Smith gameplan to set the Steelers up for an upset. 

Finally, Chris and Mike give their picks for Steelers vs. Ravens and all of the first round of the NFL Playoffs.
