With Week 8 of the 2020 NFL regular season finished and there is at least one thing that has been made clear – the Pittsburgh Steelers are the best team in the league.

The Steelers narrowly defeated the Baltimore Ravens by four points on Sunday and it was thanks to a giant defensive effort and solid play from guys like Ben Roethlisberger and James Conner.

Patrick Mahomes is still a gunslinger and he proved that against the New York Jets in the Kansas City Chiefs’ blowout victory.

Here’s what else happened in Week 8 of the season.
