Steelers Fall Short in AFC North Title Bid

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson expressed disappointment over the team’s 34-17 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night, citing two costly turnovers as key factors in their defeat.

The fumbles, which occurred during a critical stretch of play, allowed the Ravens to respond with a touchdown drive and ultimately seal the win. The game marked the end of the Steelers’ four-game losing streak against their AFC North rivals, but the team remains in contention for the division title.

With two weeks remaining, the Steelers must focus on winning their final two games against the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals to secure home-field advantage in the playoffs. Coach Mike Tomlin downplayed the significance of the loss, saying that momentum can shift quickly in any game.

For Wilson, the turnover issues highlighted a lack of composure under pressure. The quarterback acknowledged that the mistakes cost his team dearly, but emphasized the importance of maintaining a positive mindset moving forward.

“I don’t think there’s enough time to really sulk or worry or fear,” Wilson said. “We play on Wednesday.”
