Steelers Edge Ravens in AFC North Battle

In a highly anticipated AFC North showdown, the Pittsburgh Steelers edged the Baltimore Ravens 18-16, continuing their dominance with their eighth win in nine meetings. The Steelers' defense excelled, stifling Lamar Jackson, who completed just 16 of 33 passes, and forcing three turnovers, each converted into Chris Boswell field goals. The Ravens struggled with penalties and turnovers, and despite a late touchdown, failed a crucial two-point conversion attempt. Former Raven Patrick Queen, now a Steeler, played a pivotal role by forcing a fumble that led to a key turnover. The game highlighted the physicality and tension of the rivalry, with both teams experiencing heated exchanges on the field. Notably, Ravens’ Marlon Humphrey, fined for previous roughness penalties, acknowledged their ongoing struggle against the Steelers, emphasizing the need for improvement.
