After Cleveland built a 21-10 lead through three quarters, the Steelers scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter and Aaron Rodgers ran for a two-point conversion to tie the game with just under two minutes remaining.
Rodgers threw for 299 yards and three touchdowns, but was picked off twice and was sacked five times. Rodgers threw for 154 of those yards in the final quarter. Watson threw for 268 yards with one touchdown an interception and a fumble. The Steelers also could not take advantage of 14 Cleveland penalties.
