It was a classic AFC North clash between teams that play two of them every season. And it came down to the Pittsburgh Steelers stopping Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens late in the fourth quarter — twice — to hold on for a 28-24 road victory.

It wasn’t easy as the Ravens got the ball back and Jackson found Willie Snead open over the middle for a huge gain in the final minute.

However, the Steelers held firm and advance to 7-0 by stopping Baltimore’s last-ditch effort.

The Steelers went ahead in the seesaw contest when Ben Roethlisberger found star rookie Chase Claypool for the touchdown.
Big Ben to @ChaseClaypool for a @Steelers TD! Pittsburgh re-takes the lead with less than 8 minutes left in the game.
