For the second straight week, the Pittsburgh Steelers scored at least 30 points with Mason Rudolph leading the offense and came through with a win in a big spot, keeping their playoff hopes alive in the tough AFC playoff picture.
After throttling the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 16, the Steelers hit the road in Week 17 to take on the Seattle Seahawks and came away with a hard-fought 30-23 win, improving to 9-7 on the season. The win clinched Mike Tomlin’s 17th straight non-losing season and it also clinched the Steelers finishing third in the AFC North, meaning Pittsburgh’s streak of not finishing last in the division is now up to 35 years in a row.
