TOMLIN IN 10 In his fi rst 10 seasons as the head coach of the Steelers, Mike Tomlin has an extensive list of accomplishments. Tomlin earned his 100th regular-season victrory in Week 14 of 2016 at Buff alo in his 157th career regular-season games to mark the fewest games by a Steelers head coach to reach the century mark in the win column (Chuck Noll: 158 and Bill Cowher: 163).

SEPT. 10, 2017FIRSTENERGY STADIUM (67,431)

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Steelers were victorious in the team’s2017 regular-season opener, defeating the Cleveland Browns, 21-18. Pittsburgh drew first blood when Steelers LB Tyler Matakevich blocked a Cleveland punt, which was recovered in the end zone by Steelers LB Anthony Chickillo for a touchdown early in the first quarter. Cleveland responded with a 68-yard drive that culminated in a one-yard touchdown run from QB DeShone Kizer. Begining on their own nine yard-line, Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger connected with WR Antonio Brown for a 50-yard gain to aide the Steelers on a 91-yard drive that resulted in a Roethlisberger touchdown pass to TE Jesse James, giving the Steelers an advantage of 14-7 just before halftime. With a short field, Cleveland began driving in the third quarter, but an eight-yard sack from rookie LB T.J. Watt forced the Browns to settle for a field goal from K Zane Gonzalez. The Steelers increased their lead to 21-10 following a two-yard touchdown pass from Roethlisberger to James, giving James his first career multi-touchdown performance. Cleveland found the end zone one final time when Kizer connected with Corey Coleman on a three-yard touchdown pass and followed up with a successful two-point conversion, but wasn’t able to overcome it’s deficit as Pittsburgh claimed a 21-18 victory. Brown led all receivers with 182 receiving yards, including 102 in the first half. Watt finished the game with 2.0 sacks and one interception, becoming the third player in NFL history to do so in his NFL debut, and the first on Kickoff Weekend.

PITTSBURGH – The Steelers won their fourth-straight home opener with a 26-9 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. For the second-straight week, the Steelers were first to score with a 27-yard touchdown pass from QB B e n R o e t h l i s b e r g e r t o W R M a r t a v i s B r y a n t . On Pittsburgh’s next drive, Roethlisberger took another shot down the field to Bryant, which this time resulted in a 49-yard defensive pass interference penalty. The Steelers took advantage, as Roethlisberger found rookie WR JuJu Smith-Schuster in the endzone for a four-yard touchdown. The touchdown reception marked the first catch of Smith-Schuster’s NFL career. Minnesota got on the board halfway through the second quarter with a 42-yard field goal from K Kai Forbath. The Steelers extended their lead to 17-3 with a 46-yard field goal from Chris Boswell early in the third quarter. The Vikings responded with a six-play, 82-yard drive that culminated in a one-yard touchdown run by FB C.J. Ham. On the ensuing drive, Roethlisberger completed a deep pass to Bryant for 51 yards, which set up a 29-yard Boswell field goal. The Steelers defense held the Vikings scoreless in the fourth quarter, while two more field goals from Boswell seeled the Steelers’ victory.
