The Pittsburgh Steelers made their case as to why they’re one of the best teams in the AFC with an 18-16 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, maintaining a lead in their division.
Pittsburgh only needed six Chris Boswell field goals, including a 50-yarder, to go up eight with 3:35 left in the game, to win. Boswell’s longest was from 57 yards out.

The Steelers then clamped down on Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. Jackson did find Zay Flowers for a 16-yard touchdown pass with 1:06 left in the game. Jackson couldn’t get the 2-point conversion to tie the game, though, and Baltimore fell by those two points.
The reigning NFL MVP was 16-of-33 passing for 207 yards, a touchdown and threw an interception to Steelers linebacker Payton Wilson. He also ran for 46 yards.
Derrick Henry had a rushing touchdown in the loss and had 65 rushing yards. Flowers finished with two catches for 39 yards. Isaiah Likely had four catches for 75 yards.
