Steelers vs. Raiders 2013 final score: Oakland holds on to win, despite mistakes [View all]

Last edited Mon Oct 28, 2013, 11:13 AM - Edit history (1)



The Raiders turned it over three times on Sunday, but the Steelers also played sloppy and couldn't mount a successful comeback in Oakland.

The Steelers were looking for their third straight win on Sunday but the Raiders had other ideas. Despite some sloppy play from Oakland, including two interceptions by Terrelle Pryor and a costly fourth quarter fumble by Jacoby Ford, the Raiders held on to beat the Steelers 21-18.

Oakland improved to 3-4 on the season, while Pittsburgh fell to 2-5.

The Steelers rushing game continues to suffer. Ranked 27th in rushing yards going into the game, the Steelers were even less efficient on Sunday, running for 35 yards on 19 carries as a team. Le'Veon Bell scored a two-yard touchdown with 1:24 to cut the lead but the onside kick attempt was unsuccessful and a last-second effort by the Steelers offense fell well short of points.
