BIGGEST STORYLINES

-- Comeback Player of the Year Favorites Square Off: Alex Smith spent the entire 2019 campaign recovering from a gruesome leg injury that almost cost him his life. Ben Roethlisberger played three halves before undergoing season-ending elbow surgery.

But on Monday night in Pittsburgh, the veteran quarterbacks will square off with both teams in playoff contention.

"He's a Hall of Fame player," the 36-year-old Smith said of the 38-year-old Roethlisberger. "The thing that has impressed me so much through the arch of his career is how much he's developed. As time has gone on, he's done it so many different ways. When he was a young guy, he made so many ad-lib plays and so many [plays] with his legs, the pump fakes, the breaking tackles.

"In the last five years or so, to see how prolific he's become from the pocket and how good that part of his game is, how elite it is. With his age and how many games he's played and last year, he had the elbow problems and surgery and rehab and then to come out firing [11-0] -- it says a lot about him, not only as a player but I think the work ethic, the mindset that goes into that. You certainly appreciate it from afar."

Roethlisberger has been nearly flawless in his 17th NFL season. The six-time Pro Bowler and two-time Super Bowl champion has completed 67.5% of his passes for 2,800 yards. He's thrown 25 touchdowns compared to just six interceptions. These statistics have helped the Steelers because the 13th team to start 11-0 during the Super Bowl era.

Smith has not been nearly as productive statistically -- he has more interceptions (five) than touchdowns (three) in five games -- but what he has been able to accomplish coming off a two-year absence is remarkable. Washington is 2-1 in Smith's starts this season and 8-4 in games Smith has started and finished since 2018. The third starting quarterbak this season, Smith is in position to lead a young team to the playoffs under first-year coach Ron Rivera.

"I think he's getting more and more comfortable back there," Rivera said in mid-November. "[The] decision-making is getting quicker. He's seeing some of the really good decisions, some excellent throws, put the ball where he needed to. It was good to see. It really was. Going forward, he's really just getting stronger and stronger."

-- 25 And Under: Of the 12 combined receivers on Washington and Pittsburgh, the average age is 24.6. And these are not just young wideouts trying to figure out how to produce at the NFL level.

Terry McLaurin is already one of the better receivers despite being midway through his second season, while Pittsburgh has perhaps the best young receiving trio in JuJu Smith-Schuster, Diontae Johnson and Chase Claypool. Through 12 weeks, they've combined for 168 catches, 1,766 yards and 20 touchdowns.

Even if you're not a fan of either team, these pass-catchers make this Monday evening showdown worth watching.

"Claypool's been an exciting addition to them," defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said. "He brings size, speed, play-making ability. Obviously, Big Ben has gotten comfortable with him and likes him a lot. I think JuJu has established himself. He's a good football player. The guy's really physical. [TE Eric] Ebron catches a lot of balls as well. They've got a good group. No matter where you look -- tight ends, receivers, backs -- they've got a very capable group of people. Obviously with Big Ben pulling the trigger, it makes them very formidable."

-- Battle Of The Trenches: The Steelers are undefeated in large part because they protect Roethlisberger (league-best 10 sacks allowed) and hound opposing quarterbacks (league-best 41.0 sacks).

However, there is a chance neither unit is at full strength against Washington. Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey and defensive end Stephon Tuitt (seven sacks) missed the Ravens' game and are still on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. The Steelers will be without linebacker Bud Dupree (eight sacks), who was placed on Injured Reserve with a season-ending knee injury.

Washington's defense ranks second in the league with 36.0 sacks, and its offensive line has been formidable since Smith took over as the starting quarterback. Plus, there's a good chance tackle Cornelius Lucas will return after missing the past two games with an ankle injury. That would allow right tackle Morgan Moses to slide back over to his natural position.

If Washington intends to upset the Steelers, it must give Smith time to throw and figure out a way to fluster Roethlisberger, who is getting rid of the ball historically fast.
