The Steelers ended a three-game winless streak with a narrow 20-19 victory over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens in Week 13. Baltimore dominated time of possession 36:30 to 23:30, but Pittsburgh QB Ben Roethlisberger led two fourth-quarter scoring drives in the final 7:18 en route to finishing with 236 passing yards and 2 touchdowns.
WR Diontae Johnson was Big Ben's primary target, reeling in 8 receptions on 11 targets for 105 yards and both touchdown scores. Rookie RB Najee Harris paced the backfield with 71 yards on 21 carries.
The Vikings were the first team to fall to the Detroit Lions this season as they lost 29-27. Minnesota found itself with a 6-0 first-quarter lead on the strength of two PK Greg Joseph field goals but trailed 20-6 at halftime.
Two fourth-quarter touchdowns (passes to WRs K.J. Osborn and Justin Jefferson) gave the Vikings a lead with 1:50 remaining, but the defense didn't hold as Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown scored the winning touchdown as time expired.
