Green Bay pulled ahead 22-19 with 14:55 left after a successful two-point conversion on a pass to Doubs.<\/p>\n<p>Micah Parsons sacked Rodgers for a 10-yard loss on first down, leading to Pittsburgh going three-and-out. Doubs gained 11 yards on the punt return. The ball was moved to the Steelers&#8217; 45 after Nick Herbig was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson broke a 15-yard run off the right side on the first play of the series. Zach Tom was slow to get up after a 2-yard pass to Kraft. On the next third-and-4 play, Kraft caught a slant and extended it for a 24-yard touchdown to put the Packers up 29-19 with 10:57 remaining.<\/p>\n<p>At that point, Kraft set a new career high for receiving yards with 143 on catches.<\/p>\n<p>Metcalf was called for a personal foul on a Warren 5-yard run, pushing Pittsburgh back to third-and-17. Gary then scored his second sack of Rodgers, forcing the Steelers to punt with 8:56 left.<\/p>\n<p>Love completed his 18th consecutive pass on a 28-yard strike to Watson to the Steelers&#8217; 28. He tied Brett Favre&#8217;s franchise record of 20 with a 14-yard pass to Doubs on third-and-9.<\/p>\n<p>The streak ended when Love had to dirt the ball on second-and-6. Brandon McManus made a 28-yard field goal to push the Packers&#8217; lead to 32-19 with 5:28 remaining.<\/p>\n<p>On second-and-10, Cooper forced a fumble of Gainwell after a 5-yard catch. Javon Bullard recovered at the Pittsburgh 26.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson gained 19 yards on three straight carries before the drive stalled. McManus made a 25-yard field goal to extend Green Bay&#8217;s lead to 35-19 with 3:59 remaining.<\/p>\n<p>Karl Brooks broke up a Rodgers pass at the line of scrimmage on second-and-5 from the Pittsburgh 46. The Steelers converted on fourth-and-5 with a 14-yard pass to Metcalf.<\/p>\n<p>Valentine appeared to break up a pass for Wilson in the end zone, but the league ruled it was a 21-yard TD. The two-point conversion failed and the Packers maintained a two-score lead, 35-25, with 2:07 remaining.<\/p>\n<p>Doubs recovered the onside kick. Rasheed Walker got up slowly after Wilson&#8217;s 3-yard run at the two-minute warning. Anthony Belton replaced him at left tackle. Wilson picked up enough yards to run on the clock on the win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Packers beat Steelers 35-25, improve to 5-1-1 For the third straight game, the Packers scored on the first&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16252,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[8650,8649,11899,11898,8648,73,75,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-16251","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pittsburgh","8":"tag-green-bay-packers-at-pittsburgh-steelers-2025-reg-8","9":"tag-homepage-cp","10":"tag-news-gameday","11":"tag-news-in-game-updates","12":"tag-news-national-feature","13":"tag-pittsburgh","14":"tag-pittsburgh-headlines","15":"tag-pittsburgh-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16251","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16251"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16251\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16252"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16251"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16251"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16251"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
