Warren, Steelers stiff-arm Saints for 16-10 Paris win

PARIS — This article originally appeared on SteelersNOW.com.

Jaylen Warren had another big day and the Pittsburgh Steelers overcame some red-zone inefficiency to beat the New Orleans Saints, 16-10 in the first NFL game ever played in Paris.

As he has over the team’s current winning streak, Warren was the dynamo for the Steelers offense, rushing 18 times for 101 yards, averaging 5.6 yards per carry.

The Steelers started the game by playing Spencer Anderson as an extra offensive lineman for the first time this season, and ran the ball all the way down the field with Warren, but to portend the way the rest of the game would go, settled for a Chris Boswell field goal.

The one time they were able to capitalize in the red zone became the key play in the game, as Aaron Rodgers hit Darnell Washington on a fade route for a 4-yard touchdown to make to 10-3 Steelers in the second quarter.

The Saints were able to move the ball solely with the right arm of second-year quarterback Tyler Shough, as the Steelers completely shut down the New Orleans rushing attack. Shough was also the Saints’ leading rusher — with seven yards.
