The 8-3 Pittsburgh Steelers survived a scare at the hands of the 4-7 Kansas City Chiefs and held on for a 13-9 win.
The Steelers got a little help from backup quarterback Tyler Palko, who threw 3 interceptions in the loss. Palko finished 18 of 28 for 167 yards and no TDs. Palko’s performance will put more pressure to get Kyle Orton up to speed quickly.
Troy Polamalu left the game following a shot to the head and was on the sideline for the entire second half.
