Washington Commanders vs. Pittsburgh Steelers: Time, TV, Predictions & Preview

The Washington Commanders (7-2) will look to keep things rolling as they head home to Northwest Stadium in Maryland to take on a tough Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) who are beginning to find their identity. The game is set to kick off this afternoon with the Commanders looking to keep pace ahead of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East while the Steelers look to maintain their lead over the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.

One of these teams will have to crack at some point and the matchup should be one of the better ones in today’s slate of NFL action. Here is all the information you need for today’s game between the Washington Commanders and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Northwest Stadium
Landover, Maryland
Sunday, November 10th, 1:00 PM EST

The game can also be watched via legal streaming platforms such as ESPN+, NFL+, FuboTV, DirectTV Stream, Hulu Plus Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.

The Washington Commanders are one of the best teams in the NFL. Surprising, yes, but not for the reasons one might think. Not many expected the Commanders to be this good, this early under the leadership of rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, but they have done just that reaching a 7-2 record and in control of the NFC East.

Meanwhile, the Steelers had a good quarterback problem, staying afloat through the early portion of the season with Justin Fields before Russell Wilson took over for them. Wilson has played admirably after being shunned out of Seattle, finding stud wide receiver George Pickens along the way. The Steelers’ offense hasn’t been all that great but they are headed by running backs Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren, and just traded for former Jets wide receiver Mike Williams.

The challenge for the Commanders in this one will be stopping the passing game in the secondary. While they have struggled, the Commanders traded for former Saints’ cornerback Marshon Lattimore. However, it is doubtful he will suit up in this one as he continues to nurse a hamstring injury. The rest of the defense will look to step up in the big moments and when needed most.

On the offensive side of the ball, Jayden Daniels has been a masterclass, winning seven, yes seven, Rookie of the Week honors, and will be looking to tie Justin Herbert for the most such honors in NFL history. The Commanders’ offense has been high-flying but it could take a step back today with running back Brian Robinson Jr. already being ruled out and having to face one of the best defenses in the NFL.

The Washington Commanders currently are 2.5-point favorites at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to DraftKings.

The Commanders have been one of the most surprising teams in the league this season. Yes, the team is good, but I don’t think anyone had them reaching the levels we have seen this season so quickly. Now Washington will have another tough test as they play the Pittsburgh Steelers who are finding their stride on offense with Russell Wilson under center. This game should be telling on how legit the Commanders are. However, with this one being at home I can see them doing just enough against a stout defense to pull out the victory.

Commanders 24, Steelers 21

Washington Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury announces she’s pregnant

Washington Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury has announced that she and her husband Matt are expecting a baby in July.

The couple made the announcement in a video on the Spirit’s social media channels, holding a baby goalkeeper jersey on the pitch at Audi Field.

Kingsbury becomes the most recent Spirit star to go on maternity leave, following defender Casey Krueger, midfielder Andi Sullivan and forward Ashley Hatch.

Sullivan gave birth to daughter Millie in July, while Hatch welcomed her son Leo in January.

Krueger announced she was pregnant with her second child in October.

Kingsbury has served as the Spirit’s starting goalkeeper since 2018, and has been named the NWSL Goalkeeper of the Year twice (2019 and 2021).

The 34-year-old has two caps with the U.S. women’s national team, and was named to the 2023 World Cup roster.

The club captain will leave a major void for the Spirit, who have finished as NWSL runner-up in back-to-back seasons.

Sandy MacIver and Kaylie Collins are expected to compete for the starting role while Kingsbury is on maternity leave.

The Spirit kick off their 2026 campaign on March 13 against the Portland Thorns.

Washington state board awards Yakima 5,600 loan for Sixth Avenue project design

YAKIMA, Wash. — Yakima could soon take a major step toward redesigning Sixth Avenue after the Washington State Public Works Board awarded the city a $985,600 loan.

The loan was approved for the design engineering phase of the Sixth Avenue project. The funding can also be used along Sixth Avenue for utility replacement and updated ADA use.

The Yakima City Council must decide whether to accept the award. If the council accepts it, the city’s engineering work will move forward with the design of Sixth Avenue.

The cost of installing trolley lines is excluded from the plan. The historic trolleys would need to raise the funds required to add trolley lines.

The award is scheduled to be discussed during next week’s City Council meeting.

Microsoft promises more AI investments at University of Washington

Microsoft promises more AI investments at University of Washington

Microsoft will ramp up its investment in the University of Washington.

Brad Smith, the company’s president, made the announcement at a press conference with University of Washington President Robert Jones on Tuesday.

That means hiring more UW graduates as interns at Microsoft, he said.

And he said all students, faculty, and researchers should have access to free, or at least deeply-discounted, AI.

“ Some of it is compute that Microsoft is donating, and some of it is pursuant to an agreement where, believe me, we give the University of Washington probably the best pricing that anybody’s gonna find anywhere,” Smith said. He assured the small group of reporters present that it would be “many millions of dollars of additional computational resources.”

The announcement today didn’t include any specific numbers.

But Smith said Microsoft has already invested $165 million in the UW over several decades.

He pointed to Jones’ vision to spur “radical collaborations with businesses and communities to advance positive change,” and eliminate “any artificial barriers between the university and the communities it serves.”

Microsoft’s goal is for AI to help UW researchers solve some of the world’s biggest problems without introducing new ones.

At Tuesday’s announcement, several research students were present to demonstrate how AI supports their work.

Amelia Keyser-Gibson is an environmental scientist at the UW. She’s using AI to analyze photographs of vines, to find which adapt best to climate change.

It’s a paradox: AI produces carbon emissions. At the same time, it’s also a new tool to help reduce them.

So how do those things square for Keyser-Gibson?

“ That’s a great question, and honestly, I don’t know the answer to that,” she said. “I’m highly aware that there’s a lot of environmental impact of using AI, but what I can say is that this has allowed us to make research innovations that wouldn’t have been possible otherwise.”

“If we had had to manually annotate every single image that would’ve been an undergrad doing that for hours,” Keyser-Gibson continued. “And we didn’t have the budget. We didn’t have the manpower to do that.”

“AI exists. If we don’t use it as researchers, we’re gonna fall behind.”

Microsoft reports on its own carbon emissions. But like most AI companies, it doesn’t reveal everything.

That’s one reason another UW student named Zhihan Zhang is using AI to estimate how much energy AI is using.
