If you would have told me the Pittsburgh Steelers would rush for over 150 plus yards I would have told you Pittsburgh wins. Then if you tell me Steelers QB Big Ben Roethlisberger would throw two INTs I would have said we get beat again. Throw in Steelers PK Chris Boswell and yes we lost and now we are put of the AFC North and into the wild card.That didn't happen as the Steelers pick Patriots QB Tom Brady off and kept him quiet in the red zone holding him under 300 yards passing (279 yds) and a TD and and INT. Big Ben threw for just 235 yards and two scored with those two INTs but it was that running game by the Black and Yellow"!
Enter Steelers RB Jaylen Samuels from the N.C. State Wolfpack as he ran for 142 yards on 19 carries with Stevan Ridley adding 16 more yards on three carries. That run game set the tone and opened up Big Ben and that passing game enough to get a huge Steelers win and that keeps them in first place in the AFC North.
