 2017 Steelers 39 vs Ravens 38 SNF
 The Steelers battle for an emotional 8th straight win and clinch the AFC North in the wake of Ryan Shazier's career-ending spinal injury in Cinci the prior week. After jumping out to a 14-0 lead, the Steelers falter and trail by 11 points after 3 quarters. But Ben Roethlisberger throws for 228 of his 506 yds in the 4th quarter, becoming the first QB to throw for over 500 yds 3 times while leading the Steelers to 19 points. Antonio Brown has 11 catches for 213 yds, including key long gains of 57, 22 and 34 yds in the 4th quarter, while LeVeon Bell gains 125 total yds and snags 9 catches. Pittsburgh's defense struggles throughout the night without Shazier, but they come up big when they have to, forcing a Ravens 3-and-out to get the ball back at their own 17 with 2:25 to play. After taking a 9-yd sack by Suggs on 1st down, Big Ben does what he does, coolly driving the Steelers to the Raven 28, keyed by clutch 3rd down passes to Jessie James (16 yds on 3rd and 13) and a beautiful deep ball to AB (34 yds on 3rd and 5) to set up Chris Boswell's 46-yd game winner. |
