Patriots .................... 17 Steelers .................... 14

Mac Jones threw for 253 yards and a touchdown and New England remained without an 0-2 start since 2001 by taking advantage of a handful of Pittsburgh mistakes in recently renamed Acrisure Stadium.

The Steelers’ biggest gaffe came on a muffed punt in the third quarter by ex-Patriot Gunner Olszewski. The miscue set up a two-yard touchdown run by Damien Harris that gave New England an 11-point lead.

Pittsburgh quarterbac­k Mitch Trubisky passed for 168 yards with a touchdown to Pat Freiermuth on the first play of the fourth quarter to briefly quiet the chants for rookie backup quarterbac­k Kenny Pickett.
