COUNTDOWN TO KICKOFF

1988 LB Devin Bush was the first NFL rookie with at least 100 tackles, 4 fumble recoveries, 2 interceptions, 1 forced fumble and 1 sack in the same season since Bennie Blades of the Detroit Lions in 1988.

1970 LB Devin Bush was the first NFL rookie since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger with at least 85 tackles, 4 fumble recoveries, 2 interceptions and 1 TD fumble return in a season.

284 Since 2014, the Steelers have recorded 284 sacks, which is the most sacks among all NFL teams.

200 WR JuJu Smith-Schuster had three receptions, including his 200th career catch, in the Steelers’ 26-24 win over the Colts on Nov. 3, 2019. At 22 years and 346 days old, Smith-Schuster was the first player to record 200 career receptions before his 23rd birthday in NFL history.

169 Since 2014, the Steelers’ offensive line unit has yielded 169 sacks, which is the third-fewest sacks allowed among all NFL teams.

137 Since entering the NFL in 2010, CB Joe Haden has recorded 137 passes defensed, which is the most of any NFL player since 2010. He also ranks fifth overall among active NFL players.

96 S Minkah Fitzpatrick registered a 96-yard interception return for TD in the 26-24 victory over the Indianapolis Colts on Nov. 3, 2019. The 96-yard interception return for TD was the second-longest in regular-season franchise history. The longest interception return for TD in regular-season franchise history is a 99-yard interception return for TD by Martin Kottler on Sept. 27, 1933 (the first year of the Steelers existence).

87.1 Pittsburgh completed 27 of 31 passes against Cincinnati on Sept. 30, 2019 (QB Mason Rudolph went 24 of 28, while RB Jaylen Samuels went 3 of 3). The 87.1 completion percentage is a team franchise record.

85.7 QB Mason Rudolph’s 85.7% (24 of 28) completion percentage (min. 20 completions) against Cincinnati (Sept. 30) was the highest for a quarterback in his second career start or earlier since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger.

81.4 QB Mason Rudolph was the third quarterback since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger to re-cord a passer rating of at least 81.4 and throw a TD in each of his first 6 career starts.

85 WR Diontae Johnson returned a punt 85 yards for a TD at Arizona on Dec. 8, 2019. The punt return for a TD was Pittsburgh’s first since Antonio Brown raced 71 yards for a TD vs. Indianapolis on Dec. 6, 2015. The 85-yard punt return for TD is the longest punt return for a TD in franchise history and second-longest punt return in franchise history.

81 OL Alejandro Villanueva extended his regular-season games played streak to 81, which is tied for the third-longest active streak among active NFL offensive tackles.

75 OL Alejandro Villanueva extended his regular-season games started streak to 75, which is the fourth-longest active streak among active NFL offensive tackles.

The 58-game streak is also the longest in regular-season fran-chise history and sixth-longest in NFL history. The NFL record for consecutive games with at least 1 sack is 69 games by Tampa Bay (1999-2003). Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin was on the Buccaneers staff during the final three seasons of the streak.

54.0 DT Cameron Heyward’s 54.0 career sacks are the second-most by a Steelers’ defen-sive lineman, fifth-most among active NFL DT and eighth-most by any Steelers defender (since 1982).

54 Pittsburgh registered an NFL-best 54 sacks in 2019. The 54 sacks were the most for theSteelers in a season since 2017 -- when Pittsburgh recorded 56. The 54 sacks were tied for the fourth-most for the Steelers in a season since 1982 (when sacks became an officially recognized stat by the NFL).

38 Pittsburgh forced 38 turnovers in 2019, which led the NFL. The 38 takeaways were the most for the Steelers in a season since 1996 -- when Pittsburgh forced 40.

11.5 LB T.J. Watt (14.5) and LB Bud Dupree (11.5) were 1 of 3 duos in the League (Za’Darius Smith, 13.5, and Preston Smith, 12.0, of Green Bay; Aaron Donald, 12.5, and Dante Fowler, 11.5, of Los Angeles Rams) with at least 11.5 sacks apiece.

9.0 Pittsburgh had 3 different players record at least 9.0 sacks in 2019 (T.J. Watt with 14.5, Bud Dupree with 11.5 and Cameron Heyward with 9.0). The Steelers were the only team in the NFL with 3 players that recorded at least 9.0 sacks.

5 LB T.J. Watt put together an NFL Defensive Player of the Year-caliber season in 2019.He ranked in the top-five in the NFL in sacks (14.5, t-4th), quarterback hits (36, 3rd), forced fumbles (8, t-1st) and fumble recoveries (4, t-2nd). Watt also ranked tied for 12th in tackles for loss (14).

5 S Minkah Fitzpatrick ranked tied for fourth in the NFL with 5 interceptions in 2019. His 5 interceptions were the most by a Steeler in a single season since Troy Polamalu had 7 picks in 2010.

3 The Steelers scored TDs on three of their four red-zone drives vs. New York Giants, thanks to three TD passes by QB Ben Roethlisberger. Pittsburgh’s red-zone TD percentage last season (35%) was the lowest for any NFL team since 2012.

2ND RB Jaylen Samuels was the second player with 3 completions, 3 rushes and 3 catches in a game since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger, joining Terrelle Pryor in 2016.

1ST In 2019, WR Diontae Johnson was the first Steelers’ rookie with a punt return for a TD since Santonio Holmes had a 65-yard punt return TD vs. Carolina on Dec. 17, 2006. He also was the second Steelers’ rookie in franchise history with a punt return for a TD and TD reception in the same game (Louis Lipps at New Orleans on Nov. 19, 1984.

1ST In 2019, QB Devlin Hodges was the first undrafted rookie QB to win his first three NFL starts since the Washington Redskins’ Ed Rubbert in 1987 (replacement player during the 1987 NFL players’ strike).

Denver took back the lead on the first drive of the fourth quarter with a 2-yard touchdown run from RB Philip Lindsay. An interception by Roethlisberger in the end zone with 1:07 remaining ended the game in favor of the Broncos.

DENVER – Despite 462 passing yards from Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh fell to the Denver at Broncos Stadium at Mile High, 24-17.

The Broncos were first on the scoreboard with a field goal after blocking a 48-yard attempt by Steelers K Chris Boswell on the previous drive.

A successful 41-yard kick from Boswell tied the game at 3-3 early in the second quarter, but Denver re-gained the lead on the following drive with a 10-yard touchdown pass from QB Case Keenum to TE Matt LaCosse.

Before halftime, Pittsburgh orchestrated a 12-play 75-yard drive that culminated in a fake field goal attempt in which Boswell threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to OT Alejandro Villanueva to tie the game.
