The Pittsburgh Steelers managed to beat the Cleveland Browns 38-7 despite Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger having his least productive full-game effort since Oct. 20, 2013, and that was due in part to the contributions of Pitt alum and Steelers running back James Conner, who ran for 100 yards for the third time in his last four games.
All told, Conner ran for 101 yards and one touchdown on 20 carries on a day when the Steelers leaned heavily on their running game. In total, the team ran the ball 37 times and only passed the ball 23 times.
