- Fitzpatrick became the first player to record back-to-back 400-yard, four-touchdown games to start a season. Can he pull off a third?

- According to ESPN’s “Matchup Predictor,” the Steelers have a 53.1 percent chance to get the win.
In what turned out to be a defensive battle, Pittsburgh got the nod in this one, coming away with a 10-9 victory, thanks to placekicker Chris Boswell’s 22-yard, game-winning field goal with two seconds left.
Not a lot of Fitz magic in this one, and while Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had an up-and-down game, he was able to hook up with wide receiver Antonio Brown on a big 91-yard score in the third quarter.
