The Pittsburgh Steelers held Robert Griffin III to 177 passing yards and only 8 yards rushing defeating the Washington Redskins, 27-12.
Griffin had his most frustrating day as a pro completing only 16 of his 34 pass attempts. The Steelers defense stymied the young star all day and possibly created a blueprint for the rest of the league to follow.
Ben Roethlisberger was not in the mood to be out done by a rookie in his stadium. Roethlisberger was 24 for 33 with 222 passing yards and 3 touchdown passes.
Jonathan Dwyer had another big day for the Steelers rushing for 107 yards.
Next week, the Steelers (4-3) will travel to Met Life Stadium to play the Giants, and the Redskins (3-5) are home to play the Panthers.
