The Raiders got off to a hot start as Jimmy Garoppolo found Davante Adams for a touchdown, but Kenny Pickett responded with a 72-yard touchdown to Calvin Austin to tie the game. That was the beginning of 23 unanswered points by the Steelers.

Chris Boswell knocked in three straight field goals to put Pittsburgh up by nine, but toward the end of the third, Pickett found trust tight end Pat Freiermuth for a 16-yard score, giving them a 23-7 lead.
