Fitzpatrick does it again as Steelers shut down Rams

Forget the Steel Curtain defense, of which members were honored at halftime of Sunday's game against the Rams as part of the 40th anniversary of Super Bowl XIV.

Forget the Bltizburgh defense, which terrorized offenses in the mid-'90s.

This current Steelers' defensive unit is making a name for itself. It's not the Steelers' defense. It's the stealing defense.

The Steelers forced four more turnovers on Sunday, with Minkah Fitzpatrick contributing two of those, including a fumble he returned for a touchdown, and the defense stopped the Rams on two drives in the closing minutes in a 17-12 victory over the defending NFC champions at Heinz Field.
