Pittsburgh Steelers: 5 players who stood out in win over Patriots

This was a must-win game for the Steelers if there ever was one. With the Ravens winning earlier in the day, the Steelers’ AFC North lead would only remain intact with a victory in Heinz Field over Tom Brady and the Patriots.

It’s still a little more than a week before Christmas, but Christmas may have come a little early in Pittsburgh this year. After all, it’s not every year the Steelers get a victory over New England.

This game had the start that we all kind of expected. The Steelers took the opening drive down the field for a touchdown, in the best executed drive of the game if you ask me.
