The Steelers went 80 yards on 14 plays – 11 of them runs – on their second possession, scoring on an 18-yard run by Warren on which he started left, cut back across the line, picked up a sealing block by Dan Moore and went untouched into the end zone for a 7-0 lead.
The Pittsburgh Steelers emerged victorious in a thrilling encounter against the Seattle Seahawks, propelling them into Week 18 with renewed confidence. The game showcased the Steelers' resilience and determination, as they overcame a formidable opponent to secure a crucial win.
From the outset, it was evident that both teams were evenly matched. The Seahawks displayed their offensive prowess, with Russell Wilson's precision passing and the dynamic running of Chris Carson posing a constant threat. However, the Steelers' defense stood firm, led by T.J. Watt's relentless pursuit of the quarterback and Minkah Fitzpatrick's exceptional coverage skills.
Kenneth Walker around left end to tie the score at 7-7.
Seattle (8-8) had its two-game win streak snapped and while the Seahawks weren't eliminated from the postseason, they will need a victory and a lot of help in Week 18.
Geno Smith threw for 290 yards and a 12-yard TD to Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the first half. Kenneth Walker III added 53 yards rushing and a 13-yard TD in the first half, but the Seahawks settled for three field goals in the second half and Smith committed one big turnover.
Steelers also crushed Seattle in time of possession.
The Seahawks tried to rally late. A drive deep into Steelers territory didn't result in a touchdown, and Seattle settled for a field goal just before the two-minute warning. The Seahawks tried an onside kick trailing 27-20, but Pittsburgh recovered. A reception to Pickens for a first down and a Harris run for another first down ended the game.
The Steelers still need a lot to go right to make the playoffs. But they're alive, and it looked like there was no chance of that happening a couple of weeks ago.
