Steelers 27, Redskins 12: Week 8 Section

The Washington Redskins dropped their second straight game Sunday, 27-12 to the Pittsburgh Steelers. On a rainy day at Heinz Field, dropped passes by receivers (coach Mike Shanahan counted 10) and an overmatched defense did them in. Robert Griffin III threw for 177 yards and a touchdown on 16 of 34 passing, while Ben Roethlisberger picked apart the Redskins defense for 222 yards and three scores.
