Pittsburgh Steelers: Grade Report for Loss To the New York Jets

December 20, 2010   ·   Chris G.   ·   Jump to comments

The Pittsburgh Steelers clinched a playoff spot, but not in the manner they wanted to following a 22-17 loss to the New York Jets.
The loss drops the Steelers to a first-place tie with the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.
Pittsburgh’s defense held the New York offense to only 13 points but an opening kickoff return for a touchdown and a late safety sealed it for the Jets.
It was a game of missed opportunities for the Steelers as they nearly had a last-second touchdown but Ben Roethlisberger’s pass was dropped by Matt Spaeth as time expired.
The Steelers cannot dwell too long on the loss as they will have to refocus if they want to earn the second seed and a first-round bye. They play Thursday night at home against the Carolina Panthers.
