BALTIMORE — The Steelers defeated the Ravens in a game that meant nothing for Baltimore and everything for Pittsburgh to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Brian Cook and Ronnell Hunt were at M&T Bank Stadium with the post-game recap.
LATROBE, PA — Three takeaways from Tuesday’s practice.
1.) The QB competition. It is still not clear who the starter should be.
2.) The Defense. They seem to be playing very fast, they have a lot of energy and excitement. Competition = chippy play.
3.) There were lot of scrums again today, but that confirms the players understand what is on the line and everyone is competing on both sides of the ball.
Diontae Johnson continued to practice by himself during Steelers’ Training Camp in efforts of inking a long-term deal with the team.

PITTSBURGH (GSM) — They did their part. However, the Steelers needed help to make the playoffs.
After a win in Baltimore against division rival Ravens on Sunday, the Steelers needed either the Chargers or Raiders to win in order to live another day. The Raiders won on the foot of kicker Daniel Carlson with 2-seconds left to play in overtime, 35-32 in Las Vegas. A tie would have pushed the Steelers out of postseason contention.
Steelers fans showed tremendous gratitude to Carlson’s game-winning kick by contributing to charities he supports.
