10 Highest-Scoring Steelers Games: Most Points Ever

FILE - In this Nov. 8, 2018, file photo, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (89) runs with the ball during the team's NFL football game against the Carolina Panthers in Pittsburgh. Among the Panthers defenders are Mike Adams (29) and Shaq Thompson (54). The Panthers have been a perennial top 10 defense since middle linebacker Luke Kuechly’s arrival in 2012, making their performance against Pittsburgh all that much more surprising. The Steelers scored on seven of their first eight possessions; the only time they failed to do so was when they took a knee before halftime to run out the clock. (
