Steelers falter as Seahawks rally for a dramatic 31-17 victory

The Pittsburgh Steelers aimed for a strong start to their season, hoping to secure a second consecutive win against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. However, they found themselves on the losing end of a thrilling contest that showcased the resilience of the visiting team.

Seahawks’ late-game surge

Entering the second half trailing 14-7, the Seahawks displayed an impressive turnaround, scoring 24 points in a stunning late-game rally that propelled them to a 31-17 victory. The turning point came when Seattle kicker Jason Myers converted a crucial field goal, pushing the Seahawks ahead 17-14.

A costly mistake for the Steelers

In a moment that will haunt Steelers rookie Kaleb Johnson, his decision to field the ensuing kickoff proved detrimental. Attempting to handle the ball off the bounce, he misjudged the play, leading to a pivotal turnover. This miscue not only shifted momentum but also set the stage for Seattle to capitalize further.

Steelers struggle to regain control

Despite a promising start, the Steelers could not regain their footing after losing the lead. The combination of Seattle’s offensive firepower and Pittsburgh’s missteps underscored the challenges the Steelers faced as they sought to maintain their early-season momentum.

In a game filled with exciting moments and critical plays, the Steelers will need to regroup as they look ahead to their next matchup, while the Seahawks celebrate a well-earned road victory that showcased their capability to perform under pressure.
