Steelers-Raiders highlights

In the first meeting between the franchises in Las Vegas, the Steelers earned their first road win against the Raiders since 1995.

Steelers 23, Raiders 18: Las Vegas settles for field goal

The Raiders have scored 11 unanswered points to cut their deficit 23-18.

The Steelers were called for a personal foul on a Las Vegas field goal attempt that gave the Raiders another chance to get into the end zone, but their drive stalled in the red zone and they settled for a field goal.

Daniel Carlson easily made a 26-yard field goal with under three minutes to play in the fourth quarter. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers 23, Raiders 15: Davante Adams scores second TD

The Raiders still have some life.

Raiders QB Jimmy Garoppolo engineered an 11-play, 80-yard touchdown drive that was capped off by a 1-yard touchdown catch by wide receiver Davante Adams.

Las Vegas’ scored cut its deficit to 23-15 with 5:41 remaining in the contest.

Adams is having a big game. The Raiders wideout has tallied 12 catches, 160 yards and 2 touchdowns. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers 23, Raiders 7: Pittsburgh converts INT into TD

The Steelers offense capitalized off the defense’s interception.

Pittsburgh went on a six-play drive that was capped off by a 13-yard touchdown catch by tight end Pat Freiermuth.

The interception and ensuing touchdown increased the Steelers’ lead to 23-7 late in the third quarter. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers pick off Jimmy G for second time

Jimmy Garoppolo had all the time in the world in the pocket, but the Raiders quarterback was unable to find anybody open.

Instead of throwing the ball out of bounds and out of harms way, Garoppolo inexplicably heaved a pass near the sideline that was picked off by Steelers cornerback Patrick Peterson. Peterson’s interception was his first as a member of the Steelers and the veteran’s 35th career INT. He leads all active players with 35 interceptions.

Garoppolo has two interceptions Sunday night. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers 16, Raiders 7: Chris Boswell makes third field goal

Steelers kicker Chris Boswell might earn himself a game ball tonight.

Boswell converted a 57-yard field goal right between the uprights to push Pittsburgh’s advantage to 16-7.

Boswell is a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals Sunday night. His 57-yard field goal is a season-long. — Tyler Dragon

Jimmy Garoppolo hurt right before halftime

Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo headed to the locker room just before halftime.

Garoppolo was sandwiched by T.J. Watt and DeMarvin Leal as he was sacked to the ground on third down. The Raiders quarterback got up gingerly before he limped to the tunnel.

The Raiders haven’t had much success outside of Davante Adams. The star wideout has seven catches, 97 yards and a touchdown in the field half.

The Steelers got a pair of field goals by kicker Chris Boswell, including a 42-yard field goal late in the second quarter to extend their lead to 13-7.

Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt has two sacks and cornerback Levi Wallace has one interception.

Pittsburgh’s lone touchdown came on a 72-yard reception by WR Calvin Austin III. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers 10, Raiders 7: Turnover leads to field goal

After the Levi Wallace interception, Pittsburgh went on an eight play, 44-yard drive to get into field goal range. The Steelers were unable to find the end zone, but kicker Chris Boswell made a 43-yard field goal to give Pittsburgh a 10-7 lead with 8:33 left in the second quarter. — Tyler Dragon

Steelers pick off Jimmy G

The Raiders were in the middle of a promising drive until Jimmy Garoppolo tried to force a pass to tight end Michael Mayer that was intercepted by Steelers cornerback Levi Wallace in Pittsburgh territory.

The interception was Garoppolo’s first of the night and his fourth overall this season. — Tyler Dragon

Raiders 7, Steelers 7: Kenny Pickett finds Calvin Austin III for long TD

The Steelers answered Las Vegas touchdown with a touchdown of their own.

With less than a minute off the game clock after the Raiders’ touchdown, Steelers QB Kenny Pickett threw a deep pass to receiver Calvin Austin III for a 72-yard touchdown. The football hit Austin right in stride.

The long touchdown pass was Pickett’s first completion of the game.

The 72-yard score is the Steelers' longest ever against the Raiders, per NFL Research. The previous long was the "Immaculate Reception" (60 yards) from Terry Bradshaw to Franco Harris in a 1972 AFC divisional playoff game. — Tyler Dragon

Raiders 7, Steelers 0: Las Vegas strikes first

Josh McDaniels’ gutsy fourth down play call paid off.

On fourth-and-1, the Raiders ran crossing routes, and Jimmy Garoppolo found star wide receiver Davante Adams who got behind the Steelers defense for a 32-yard touchdown.

The score gave the Raiders a 7-0 first-quarter lead.

Adams is on his way to having a big game. The Raiders receiver has four catches, 65 yards and a touchdown in the first quarter. — Tyler Dragon

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa is the highest-paid non-quarterback in the league after signing a five-year, $170 million extension. 

Here’s the complete list of the league’s highest-paid players.
