Q4:
OAK 35 PIT 38
What a competitive game, but too many mistakes just cost the Raiders at the end. Antonio Brown burned this secondary big time. That catch and run by Brown was huge and gave the Steelers excellent field position to set up a game winning field goal. This game lived up to the hype as a game of epic proportions with playoff implications on the line. This game won't go up there with the "Immaculate Reception" or anything, but the Steelers once again break the hearts of us Raiders fans in Pittsburgh. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3:
OAK 21 PIT 21
The Steelers are not feeling the lost of Le'Veon Bell because DeAngelo Williams is just taking it to the Raiders run defense. The Raiders managed to tie it up this quarter, but they've lost some key pieces to that offense. Latavius Murray went back to locker room with concussion, Clive Walford got shaken up from a hit. These are definite blows to the Raider offense and it could affect the outcome of the 4th quarter.
OAK 14 PIT 21
Ah, the Raiders didn't even try to tack on any points with 29 seconds left in the 2nd quarter. But right now, somebody please cover Antonio Brown? Just awful coverage on him and that helped set up 2 rushing TDs by DeAngelo Williams. So far, momentum has favored the Steelers. Onto the halftime report.
Q1:
OAK 7 PIT 3
Impressive 1st drive by the offense to take the crowd out of it. However, since then, the offense has been kept in check by this underrated Steelers defense. And that's where credit is due. Right now, the Steelers are showing why they've been perennial contenders against this Raiders team and while the offense has not clicked since Carr's TD pass to Michael Crabtree, Ben Roethlisberger and Steelers offense started to click on the current drive at the end of this quarter.
