-- Running back Le'Veon Bell was back and his presence was felt in the both the run and pass game. Bell carried the ball 19 times for 62 yards and a touchdown. Bell also had seven receptions for 70 yards.

-- Will Allen had the Steelers first interception of the season and it couldn't have come at a better time. The Steelers were up 9-6 with 3:02 remaining in the game and the Rams looking to either tie the game or take the lead, when Allen intercepted Nick Foles, giving the offense the ball back. Josh Scobee hit a 27-yard field goal to extend the lead to 12-6.

"We had a call on, the coaches wanted to execute it," said Allen. "I was just playing deep, Nick Foles threw it deep, and thank God I was in the right place at the right time. God put me in that place."

Allen finished the game with seven tackles, four solo and three assists.

-- Defensive end Stephon Tuitt had a career-high six tackles against the Rams and one sack.

-- It's impossible to not include Antonio Brown each week when all he does is make plays. Brown finished the day with 11 receptions for 108 yards, marking his fourth straight 100-yard game. He extended his NFL record for consecutive games with five catches for 50 yards to 35 games. He also extended his streak of five catches for 70 yards to 21 games.
