Wilson and Dissley connected again in the third quarter on a 12-yard pass to make it 14–10, though the Steelers later came within a point after Boswell kicked a 33-yard field goal to make it 14–13. The Seahawks pulled away when Rashaad Penny ran for a 37-yard touchdown to make it 21–13. In the fourth quarter, the Steelers came within 2 when backup QB Mason Rudolph found TE Vance McDonald on an 8-yard pass (with a failed two-point conversion) to make it 21–19. The Seahawks responded as Wilson found DK Metcalf on a 28-yard pass to make it 28–19. The Steelers scored the final points of the game with Rudolph again connecting with McDonald from three yards out to make the final score 28–26. After another tough win, the Steelers went home for a game against the Bills.
The Steelers received critical acclaim by both USA Today and the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review for honoring Rogers. After another tough loss, the Steelers returned home for a Monday Night Football duel against the Bengals. In the first quarter, the Bengals scored first, when Randy Bullock kicked a 28-yard field goal to make it 3–0 for the quarter's only score. However, it would be all Steelers from the second quarter onwards when they scored 27 consecutive points to seal the game and get their first win. Griffin’s final career start was the following season when Jackson was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

They will have to travel to Cleveland on a short week after having to face two tough teams in the Colts and Rams in weeks 9 and 10. It's never easy going on the road on a short week, especially to face a tough defensive team like the Browns are. They've consistently added pieces to the defense and added number one overall pick Baker Mayfield, who performed very well in his rookie season. The Browns finished 7-8-1, a massive improvement from the combined 1-31 record over the two previous seasons.
Longtime franchise QB Ben Roethlisberger was also ruled out for the season after suffering a non-contact elbow injury during the game. In addition to the players traded away and cut, Ryan Shazier remained out due to his 2017 spinal injury against the Bengals. Shazier was subsequently placed on the reserve/PUP list for the 2019 season. The bye week comes a little early in the season, falling on Week 7, but gives the team a break before they hit a stretch of 10 straight games. Back to back games with the Colts and Rams would have been one of the toughest stretches of the 2019 season until Andrew Luck surprisingly retired from football at age 29.
Steelers LB Myles Jack Doubtful For Week 15, Pat Freiermuth And Diontae Johnson Off Injury Report
The only form of success he had was scrambling and running the football, gaining 50 yards on the ground. That will be a critical piece for Pittsburgh’s defense entering the first matchup of 2022 as Huntley is very elusive with his legs, similar to the injured Jackson. The Steelers are 4-6 in games in Foxboro, also having lost both playoff games. The last time the Steelers won in Foxboro was November 30, 2008 against a Matt Cassel-led Patriots team.
The Los Angeles Rams come to Pittsburgh in Week 10 of the 2019 schedule. It will be the final game of a three-game home stand after the Steelers host the Dolphins on Monday Night Football in Week 8, followed by a matchup with the Colts on a short week. The previous two times these teams met, they were both at Heinz Field and they were both emotionally draining games. 2017's edition of the matchup was highlighted by Jesse James' controversial non-catch and last season's rematch was an emotional victory for the struggling Steelers, who had just lost on the road in Oakland. The regular season will close out on Dec. 29 with a Week 17 matchup against the Ravens, the 10th straight year the team will face an AFC North rival in the final game. They’re one of a handful of NFL teams with a fanbase that extends beyond their region — the Cowboys and Packers are up there too — and that fact was on display for Pittsburgh’s road game against the Arizona Cardinals.

Here are three games that could make or break the Steelers season. These are going to be dangerous games, not only because of the strength of the opponent, but because of how they could impact playoff scenarios come end of December. After going in their first ten games, the Steelers played miserably down the stretch, losing four of their last six games.
Jackson has actually only started three regular season games in his career against Pittsburgh and is 1-2 as the top guy on the depth chart. Baltimore’s playoff position was secure so they rested many of their starters. The offense ran rampant against the Steelers as Gus Edwardsled an offense that had 223 rushing yards. The quarterback stepping in, however, did not have a very efficient outing passing the ball.
Regular season
A skirmish broke out between the two teams in the closing seconds of the game. After passing to Trey Edmunds, Steelers QB Mason Rudolph found himself dragged down by Browns defensive end Myles Garrett. Rudolph shoved Garrett while the two were still on the ground, seemingly unhappy with how he was tackled.
They made it 10–0 in the second quarter when Stephen Gostkowski kicked a 25-yard field goal. This was followed up by Brady connecting with Philip Dorsett on a 25-yard touchdown pass to make it 17–0, before Gostkowski kicked a 41-yard field goal to make it 20–0 at halftime. In the third quarter, the Steelers managed to get on the board when Chris Boswell kicked a 19-yard field goal to make it 20–3.
It has been photo-matched to the December 1, 2019 game against the Cleveland Browns.

Sign up and play $1 or more with betPARX each week for the chance to win tickets, accommodations, and spending money for every 2023 Steelers road game. The Chargers have no footprint in the city and have to play in a soccer stadium that consistently draws more visiting fans. The Rams — despite ties to Los Angeles and on-field success — haven’t fared much better in that regard.
The roster is more balanced, especially on the defensive side of the ball, after some great acquisitions in free agency and the draft. As usual, KDKA-TV will locally televise the Steelers games against the Buccaneers, Chiefs and Panthers. The Rams were supposed to have a home game on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. You just never would have guessed that from the crowd at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. In this episode of The Standard, we get a behind-the-scenes look at training camp, the first preseason game, and the scouting department. Jacksonville finished ahead of Cleveland based on record against common opponents.
After a tough home win, the Steelers stayed home for a game against the Rams. The Rams scored first in the first quarter when Dante Fowler returned a fumble 26 yards for a touchdown to make it 7–0. The Steelers, however, tied the game up later on in the quarter when Mason Rudolph found James Washington on a 3-yard pass to make it 7–7. In the second quarter, the Steelers took the lead when Minkah Fitzpatrick returned a fumble 43 yards for a touchdown to make it 14–7 at halftime.
