10 questions Baltimore Ravens must answer week 5 at the Pittsburgh Steelers

The injury report is looking promising, but it is hard to see either Odafe Oweh or Tyus Bowser suiting up this week. With David Ojabo out for the year, the duo of Jaeveon Clowney and Kyle Van Noy will take on the Steelers, with Tavius Robinson and Jeremiah Moon backing things up. This is not the toughest group the Steelers have seen, even though Clowney has played great.
