What started off looking like another classic Steelers letdown of letting an inferior team with inferior players hang around only to pull out a close win turned into Pittsburgh scoring their second-most points in the post-Ben Roethlisberger era and defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 32-13.
The first two drives of this game were complete eye-rolls. After two first downs on their first two plays, the Steelers did what they’ve grown to do best — stall out after scared play-calling and bad execution to settle for a long field goal. On the ensuing Raiders drive, Las Vegas drove the ball 70 yards in 10 plays to score a touchdown and take a 7-3 lead.
