Steelers hold off Titans in matchup of NFL unbeatens for best start in 42 years

  • Steelers move to 6-0 for first time since 1978 season
  • Bills overcome 10-point deficit to top winless Jets
  • Browns lose Odell Beckham to injury in 37-34 win

Ben Roethlisberger threw two touchdown passes to Diontae Johnson, and the Pittsburgh Steelers remained perfect by holding off Tennessee for a 27-24 victory Sunday in a game originally postponed when the Titans came down with the NFL’s first Covid-19 outbreak of the season.

In a matchup of the AFC’s two remaining undefeated teams, the Titans rallied from 17 down. They failed to complete the comeback when Stephen Gostkowski, who made a 51-yarder earlier, missed from 45 yards wide right with 14 seconds left that sent the Steelers running around the field in celebration and the Titans (5-1) stunned.
