PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers dropped a lot of things Monday night at Heinz Field, culminating with the biggest drop of all: their undefeated season and an opportunity to clinch their first playoff berth since 2017.
The Steelers fell to the Washington Football Team 23-17, blowing a 14-point lead that was the second largest at home in franchise history.
Up 14-0 with seconds until halftime, the Steelers surrendered just their second loss when up by at least 14 points since 2004. Since drafting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in 2004, the Steelers are 109-2-1 when leading by 14 points at any point, including playoff games.
