In Week 11, the Pittsburgh Steelers' defense delivered a dominant performance in their 18-16 win over the Baltimore Ravens, showcasing why they are among the league's most formidable units. The defense was critical in containing Baltimore's dynamic offense, particularly quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was limited to 207 passing yards and a single touchdown while being intercepted once.
A turning point came in the red zone, where the Steelers forced the Ravens to settle for field goals on three occasions, two of which were missed. Cam Heyward's leadership on the defensive line was evident as he anchored the front and stifled Baltimore's rushing attack, limiting Derrick Henry to 65 yards on the ground.
This performance underscored the defense's ability to deliver under pressure, keeping the Steelers atop the competitive AFC North.
