Overview
- Cleveland held Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers without a touchdown, winning 13-6 behind a first‑quarter Shedeur Sanders–to–Harold Fannin Jr. touchdown and two Andre Szmyt field goals.
- Myles Garrett was kept off the stat sheet for sacks and remains at 22.0; he needs at least one full sack to break the 22.5 single‑season mark shared by Michael Strahan and T. J. Watt, with his final chance coming at Cincinnati in Week 18.
- The loss drops Pittsburgh to 9-7 and sets up a winner‑take‑all game for the AFC North against the 8-8 Ravens at Acrisure Stadium in Week 18.
- Pittsburgh played without leading receiver DK Metcalf and edge rusher T. J. Watt, and the offense went 3-of-15 on third down with 291 total yards.
- Fans briefly celebrated when Alex Wright sacked Rodgers, mistakenly thinking Garrett had notched the record, while safety Grant Delpit recorded Cleveland’s other sack.
