It’s not often that a quarterback catches a pass, much less catches his own pass batted down at the line of scrimmage. Aaron Rodgers did that in today’s win over the Ravens. He might have saved the game in the process. Here’s the play. Steelers ball? #Steelers pic.twitter.com/6LLyU6PXzl — Steelers Depot 7⃣ (@Steelersdepot) December 7, […]

Mike Tomlin’s future with the Pittsburgh Steelers dominated the airwaves this week, but the old ball coach came away victorious with a 27-22 win against his long-time rival John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens.
The offense showed signs of life early, allowing them to get out to an early lead, while the defense did just enough to hang on at the end. Retaking the lead in the AFC North should quiet the noise for a few days, at least. Let’s talk through some winners and losers from today’s big win.
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ prized offseason...
Aaron Rodgers has always marched to the beat of his own drum. Even before stepping onto the field to play in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ biggest game of the year against the Baltimore Ravens, Rodgers called an audible.

Coming off a disastrous performance against the Buffalo Bills in which he looked old and largely unplayable, there were plenty of questions around quarterback Aaron Rodgers, both fair and unfair. He made some waves with his comments, seemingly insinuating that wide receivers weren’t showing up to meetings and that guys needed to be accountable. It […]

Lost in his dominant day as a receiver, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf had an important moment on special teams, too. Metcalf, who hauled in a season-high seven passes for 148 yards in the Steelers’ 27-22 win over the Baltimore Ravens, found himself on the field late in the fourth quarter on special teams, […]

Despite losing five of their last seven entering Week 14, this felt like the most obvious Pittsburgh Steelers win possible. Backs against the wall with the AFC North on the line against a Baltimore Ravens team they’ve beaten in seven of the last 10 matchups made for the perfect get-right game for the Steelers, and that’s exactly what it was.
The Steelers’ offense came out aggressive. After struggling to connect on any downfield throw for over a month, Aaron Rodgers hit DK Metcalf on a 52-yard pass on the first play from scrimmage for the Steelers, and that set the...
Behind the Steel Curtain
BALTIMORE — The Pittsburgh Steelers suffered a slew of injuries in Sunday’s 27-22 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Tight end Darnell Washington, linebacker Malik Harrison and left tackle Andrus Peat all left the game with a concussion. Cornerback Brandin Echols was evaluated for a concussion but returned.
Keeanu Benton (ankle) and linebacker Patrick Queen (hip) also returned after suffering injuries.
“Darnell Washington had a concussion,” Tomlin said. “Malik Harrison had a concussion. [Andrus] Peat had a concussion. [Keeanu] Benton had an ankle, he was able to go back. Couple other evals were able to go back.
Tomlin noted how physical...
Pittsburgh Steelers CB James Pierre came up big for the Steelers a few times in the team’s 27-22 win. His biggest play came with an interception with 9:31 left in the second quarter when he intercepted QB Lamar Jackson. That turnover led to a Steelers touchdown. Pierre intercepting Jackson was different from intercepting any other […]

Speaking to reporters following the Ravens’ 27-22 loss, Harbaugh put the league on notice for its rulings. “I think the Aaron […]
