1:49 p.m. – What Went Right: On the first play after Colquitt's second mediocre punt, Jeff Driskell completed a short pass to Jerry Jeudy, who turned it into a 19-yard gain for a first down at the Steelers 17-yard line. That was followed by a false start, then a sack by Mike Hilton for a loss of 8 yards, and then a short pass to Courtland Sutton that only gained 1 yard when Hilton knifed through the blocking to make the tackle. Brandon McManus kicked a 49-yard field goal to cut the Steelers lead to 7-3 with 12:07 left in the first half.
1:41 p.m. – What Went Wrong: With quarterback Drew Lock sidelined with a shoulder injury and replaced by Jeff Driskel, the Steelers defense allowed one first down before forcing a Broncos punt when Terrell Edmunds broke up a third-down pass. But the offense responded with a three-out out that was lowlighted by a 10-yard sack by Mike Purcell back to the 9-yard line. When Dustin Colquitt's second punt traveled 36 yards, Denver began at the Steelers 36-yard line to open the second quarter.
1:29 p.m. – What Went Right: The Steelers took advantage of the takeaway and marched 59 yards in nine plays to take a 7-0 lead with 4:23 left in the first quarter. The possession began with three straight completions by Ben Roethlisberger – a 15-yard pass to Eric Ebron, an 8-yarder to JuJu Smith-Schuster, and then a 5-yard out to James Washington. After an incomplete pass, James Conner burst up the middle for an 11-yard gain. After a drop by Ebron and an incomplete pass in the end zone, the Steelers converted the third-and-10 on a short pass to Smith-Schuster, who then ran over cornerback Michael Ojemudia to get the first down and put the ball at the 2-yard line. Conner busted over the goal line on the next play for the touchdown.
