The Pittsburgh Steelers needed five takeaways to beat the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium in 2025.

Five may not have been enough in the rematch between those teams on Sunday. The Steelers offense could do nothing all day in a 20-3 loss to the Patriots that was nowhere near as close as the score appeared.
