Pittsburgh Steelers free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick (39) makes an interception of a pass intended for Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (84) on Sunday, Nov. 3, 2019, in Pittsburgh. Fitzpatrick ran it back for a touchdown.

Are the Steelers as good as their three straight wins seem to show they are?

At 4-4, the team finds itself one game outside the playoff picture after a 26-24 win over the Colts on Sunday at Heinz Field. But Mark Madden is not convinced the team is as good as even that .500 record — after starting 1-4 — would seem to indicate.

In this week’s “Madden & Benz Unfiltered, ” Madden and Tim Benz discuss the merits of this winning streak, whether the Steelers are legitimate playoff contenders and whether the offense can sustain any sort of success.

The guys also discuss the state of the Penguins and take viewer questions.

Oh, and Madden has some thoughts about the state of Pittsburgh traffic.
