Tennessee Titans fall late to Pittsburgh Steelers 27-24

Tennessee TitansNashville, TN – The Pittsburgh Steelers (7-4) score two 4th quarter touchdowns to beat the Tennessee Titans (2-8) 27-24 at LP Field on Monday Night Football.

Pittsburgh took the lead when quarterback Ben Roethlisberger hit Antonio Brown for a 12 yard strike. Tennessee would get the ball back with a chance to tie or take the lead. However, after getting one first down, the Titans were forced to punt the ball back to the Steelers.
