The more Matt Cassel sees opposing defenses, the better he plays.
The stand-in for Tom Brady who became a standout for the New England Patriots hasn't seen anything like the Pittsburgh Steelers.
If Cassel can do it today, he will add another amazing accomplishment to a season in which he's grown from a backup to the reigning NFL MVP for the fourth straight year to the league's 11th-rated quarterback - ahead of Peyton Manning and Ben Roethlisberger.
The Steelers' defense allowed the second-fewest points last year and is even stingier now.
The defense is giving up the fewest yards rushing, the fewest passing and the fewest points in the NFL.
They also have the most sacks in the AFC.
Game time on KDKA-TV is 4:15 p.m.
