The Pittsburgh Steelers secured a pivotal victory over the Baltimore Ravens, strengthening their grip on first place in the AFC North. True to the rivalry's storied history, the game was a classic Pittsburgh-Baltimore grudge match, decided in dramatic fashion. The Ravens’ last-minute two-point conversion attempt to tie the game fell short, sealing the Steelers' hard-fought win.
While the Steelers offense struggled overall, particularly in the red zone—a concern they'll need to address moving forward—one standout player rose to the occasion, carrying the team to their fifth consecutive win.

Player of the Game: K, Chris Boswell
The Steelers offense struggled to find its rhythm and faced significant challenges in the red zone, but Chris Boswell once again proved to be their savior. Scoring all 18 points off his reliable leg, Boswell carried the offense and the team to victory.
This marks the second time this season that all of the Steelers' points in a win have come solely from Boswell, the first instance being in Week 1 against Atlanta.
Widely regarded as one of the best kickers of all time, Boswell was the key factor in Pittsburgh's win, improving their record to an impressive 8-2 and pushing the division lead to 1.5 games. However, with a short week ahead, the Steelers head to Cleveland for a Thursday night showdown against the Browns.
To sustain their success, the offense must find its footing, as relying so heavily on Boswell is not a sustainable formula for long-term success.
