Remembering the Silver Bridge tragedy
By Erin Perkins
eperkins@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT — On Saturday
evening, people from
Mason County and
surrounding areas gathered around 6th Street
in Point Pleasant to
remember a tragic event
that happened 51 years
ago, the night when 46
souls lost their lives

during the Silver Bridge
collapse.
To begin the fourth
annual Silver Bridge
Memorial Ceremony,
Cody Smith performed
“Thankful,” and Minister Jordan Decker
lead all the guests in an
opening prayer.
“I would like to take
a moment just to say a
little bit why we’re here,
we’re here to remem-

ber a tragic moment
in the history of our
community, but more
than that we’re here to
remember the legacy
that was left behind
the disaster and that
is one of hope…” said
Decker. “Something I
mentioned in sermon a
couple of weeks ago is
that hope is often found
in the shadows, so often
we miss it because we’re

expecting a big thing,
but so often it’s just a
ﬂickering candle light
in the darkness and its
just enough to see by,
but it is enough and
that’s what hope is. I
think even something as
tragic as the collapse of
the bridge, we still saw

Staff Report

POMEROY — The Pomeroy Village Council
met Monday evening to update on various projects
the village has been working on.
The results of a recent study found that around
75 percent of the water meters in the Village of
Pomeroy are not reading accurately, according
to Mayor Don Anderson. The village is forced to
charge many households for the minimum bill,
even if they may be using more water.
According to the mayor, a study in 2016 showed
up to 60 percent of the village’s water supply was
unaccounted for, meaning it was lost to leaks or
inaccurate meters. Council decided they will continue to look into the issue and make a decision
about replacing electronic meters.
Mayor Anderson announced that ofﬁcials from
the village were going to be meeting with the
buyer of the former Meigs High School Football
Field, Ted Dexter, later this week. As reported by
The Daily Sentinel, Dexter bought the property
from the school board earlier this month. The
mayor said there were concerns about the sewer
pipelines on the property. According to the mayor,
it is uncertain if heavy equipment or buildings
could be on top of the lines.

RUTLAND — “The true
meaning of life is to plant
trees, under whose shade you
do not expect to sit.”
To that famous quotation,
by the late Canadian farmer
Nelson Henderson, we could
add, “or whose fruit you do not
expect to eat.” However, with
any luck, people and wildlife
won’t have to wait that long
to beneﬁt from the trees and
shrubs planted earlier this
month at the Meigs SWCD
Conservation Area.
The planting of 14 fruit and
nut-bearing trees and bushes
was the result of a Creating
Healthy Communities Grant
secured by the Meigs County
Health Department and awarded by the Ohio Department of
Health.
The Meigs SWCD Orchard
Project was initiated between

The Meigs County Health Department and the Meigs
Soil and Water Conservation District partnered this
year to help create healthy communities, both human
and wildlife, with the planting of 14 nut and fruit
trees and bushes at the Meigs SWCD Conservation
Area between Rutland and Harrisonville. Creating
Healthy Communities is a program administered by
the Meigs County Health Department. CHC Director
Ciara Martin is shown here with one of the trees
planted earlier this month.

Laura Cleland, former health
educator with the Meigs
County Health Department,
and Jenny Ridenour, former
education coordinator with the
Meigs Soil and Water Conservation District.
The health department provided the trees and secured
the grant, while the district
provided the public space for
the trees. After meeting at the
Conservation Area with Ann
Bonner, regional urban forester for the Ohio Department
of Natural Resources’ Division
of Forestry, they decided upon
a mix of Hazelnut, Blueberry,
and Elderberry bushes, and
Apple and Pecan trees.
According to the Meigs

“Thank you all for

hope that young people
who are standing here
who have questions
that moms, dads, aunts,
uncles, and grandparents
will tell them the tragic
story that happened in
our community…” said
Billings. “We’ll never forget what took place, the
tears that fell, and there
was hope and a little
laughter in between…
but we’ll never forget it,
we don’t understand it,
but we’ll never forget
it those from here and
those from various states
that surround this great
Mountain State of ours
called West Virginia,
our county of Mason,
and this county seat of
Point Pleasant, where
we stand is where this
bridge once stood.”

words, Billings focused

THEIR VIEW

A short life
worth long
remembering
Most of us will spend our entire lives attempting
to accomplish some sort of deed or deeds that will
have people talking about us long after our time
on Earth here is complete. Human
beings have been walking the Earth
for roughly 200,000 years, and the 80
or so we get (if we are lucky) while
we are on this planet are scarcely a
blip on the cosmic radar screen.
We want to leave a lasting legacy
that allows us to extend our time
David
here on planet Earth, even if we
Fong
can’t do it physically. It’s why people
Contributing name buildings after themselves
columnist
(otherwise known as the “ediﬁce
complex”). It’s why people love seeing their names in print (which is good for people
in my profession). It’s why some people want
children and grandchildren — to help carry on the
family name. We want to make our mark on this
world.
We want to matter.
At the end of the day, though, time marches on.
Buildings eventually crumble. The printed word
grows yellow and brittle with age. To truly make
a difference in this world and be forever remembered, you have to touch someone’s life. You have
to make the world a better place for you and those
around you. Whether it’s a small group of people
or a large one, you want to impact lives and affect
people in ways they will forever remember. Some
people will live long lives of desperation trying to
accomplish this feat.
And some will do it in a few, short years.
Next week marks the two-year anniversary of
the tragic death of Gabrielle Nicole Ellis, who was
just 12 years old when she perished in an automobile accident alongside her grandmother, Lois.
Gabby didn’t have nearly enough time on this
planet — an unfairly short amount of time — but
I am quite certain those who know Gabby will
never forget her.
I know my daughter certainly won’t.
Gabby was my daughter Sophie’s best friend.
The two met in preschool and immediately
became inseparable. They were together nearly
every waking moment through elementary school.
Even when Gabby and her family moved to Vandalia in the sixth grade, she and Sophie kept in
constant contact with one another, often FaceTiming one another late into the night, laughing and
giggling about whatever it is 12-year-old girls ﬁnd
amusing.
My daughter had everything she could ever
want in a best friend. They were polar opposites
in so many ways — Gabby was so outgoing and
fun-loving, while my daughter has always been
more grounded and pensive — that it made
them a perfect match. Gabby would force Sophie
outside of her comfort zone, while my daughter
would bring Gabby back down to earth when the
occasion required it.
They were supposed to be best friends forever. They should have discovered boys together
(although I’m pretty sure Gabby, with her bubbly
personality, might have found them before Sophie)
and gone on double dates together. They should
have double-dated at their high school proms.
They should have been bridesmaids in one another’s weddings. They should have had kids and
those kids should have become best friends.
It didn’t happen that way, which seems unfair
in ways I can’t even express. Two years ago at
this time, my wife and I had to look our little girl
in the eyes and tell her that her best friend was
gone and never coming back. No family should
have to go through what Gabby’s family continues to struggle through to this day and no little
girl should ever have to attend her best friend’s
funeral.
While we don’t have Gabby any more, what we
do have is her memory. At a very young age, little
Gabby touched hundreds, perhaps thousands, of
lives with her positive attitude and brilliant smile.
She was so full of laughter and positivity and most
of all, hope. Teachers and classmates will always
remember her. Friends will forever carry her in
their hearts. Truthfully, anyone who ever met that
precious little ball of energy will never forget little
Gabby.
Neither will my daughter.
And that’s a pretty impressive accomplishment
— one most people spend much longer trying to
accomplish — for an all-too-short time here.
David Fong writes for the Troy Daily News, a division of AIM Media
Midwest.

THEIR VIEW

A tool for everything
My mother instilled
in me a life-long love of
cooking. She was a wonderful cook; in fact, she
was a volunteer canteen
chef for the local Red
Cross for many years.
She tried out recipes on
her family, the best ones
of which ended up in the
canteen for luncheons.
Because of this, I enjoy
watching cooking shows
of many types. One of
my favorites is Chopped.
From years of watching
this show, I’ve learned a
lot about foods I never
knew existed, how to use
spices, cooking methods,
and sometimes how to
put foods together that
you wouldn’t normally.
There are famous chefs
who are judges on these
kinds of shows. Many of
them I know and have
used their cookbooks
from time to time. Some
I’ve never heard of or

ist, said the mission of
the Meigs SWCD is to
provide assistance for the
wise use of our natural
resources for present and
future generations.
“While our mission,
and the mission of the
health department may
seem rather different, it is
apparent that healthy soil
and healthy water also
makes for healthy people
and communities,” Freeman said.
“These are trees that
make fruit and nuts for
people, but they are also
valuable wildlife species.
So, people are encouraged to enjoy them, but
they will have to beat
the wildlife to them,” he
added. “These species are
also beneﬁcial to honey
bees and other pollinators.”

The trees were purchased from a local vendor, Hupp Landscaping
Lawn Service of Long
Bottom, who planted the
trees on Dec. 3 for a total
project cost of $2,960.
The trees are large
enough that they should
start producing fruit as
soon as next year.

The hosts had their best quarter of the night
in the third, besting Meigs by a 12-to-11 tally to

21 points after making seven three-pointers. Kassidy Betzing was next with 14 points on four ﬁeld
goals and a 5-of-6 performance at the free throw
line. Becca Pullins scored 11 points, six of which

winning cause, Alyssa Smith and Olivia Haggy
chipped in with three apiece, while Taylor Swartz
scored two.

with ﬁve and Makenna Kilgour with three. Jenna

Williams building case to be Browns’ next coach
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
The Browns’ playoff odds
remain immense, nearly
impossible.
Gregg Williams’ chances, on the other hand,
have improved.
Since being elevated
to Cleveland’s interim
coach when Hue Jackson
was ﬁred on Oct. 29,
Williams, the team’s inyour-grill defensive coordinator, has guided the
Browns to four wins —
two on the road — and
has a team that didn’t win
once last season playing
meaningful December
games, believing anything
is possible.
Seven weeks ago, Williams was a long-shot
candidate. He now looks
like a serious one.
“He deserves credit for
a lot of stuff that’s going
on now, just the ﬁre and
the energy that he’s bringing to this team has been
incredible,” Browns wide
receiver Breshad Perriman said Monday, two
days after a 17-16 win in
Denver. “I feel like you
can’t put a limit for the
amount of credit you give
him.”
Williams has won over
his players, who feel his
attention to detail and
demand for accountability has brought out the
best in them. He’s also
endeared himself to a
segment of battle-scarred
Cleveland fans, who
would hate to see Williams leave and prosper
elsewhere after his suc-

cessful substitute stint.
General manager John
Dorsey, who is heading the team’s coaching
search, will interview
Williams for the full-time
job once the season ends.
Until then, the 60-yearold Williams won’t discuss his future.
The gregarious coach
loves to talk — about
anything. But with two
games to go, Williams is
not going to address his
interest in coaching the
Browns (6-7-1) in 2019
and beyond.
“I appreciate to answer
that, and all honesty, I
do not think it is fair to
the players or to anybody
here,” he said. “The
most important thing is
making sure that these
guys understand how
we continue to win and
how we get ready for the
Bengals (on Sunday).
Really. When they see the
mindset is that way —
that is the way that my
mindset has always been.
We will talk about that at
the end.”
There is no denying
Williams’ impact in less
than two months.
The Browns were in
shambles when he took
over, headed toward
further disgrace. But Williams has helped salvage
this season — Cleveland
is technically still alive for
a wild-card spot — while
providing a glimpse of a
future that hasn’t looked
nearly this promising in
years.

David Zalubowski | AP

Cleveland Browns head coach Gregg Williams speaks with umpire Clay Martin (19) during the second half Saturday against the Denver
Broncos in Denver.

Williams has more
wins in six weeks than
Jackson got in 40. He
has demanded, and the
Browns have responded.
“I just think it was
just more attention to
detail, and just us in
the locker room just not
letting all the outside
elements affect us and
affect how we play,” said
safety Jabrill Peppers.
“It would have been easy
to crumble and blame
everything else that was
going on, but we stuck
together, fought it out

and we’re on the cusp of
having our ﬁrst winning
season around here in a
long time, so everything
falls how it may.”
Peppers said he didn’t
have any “ill will” toward
Jackson, but indicated
the Browns have been
better prepared by Williams, who stresses competition at all times.
“We just practice realgame situations competitively now instead of
having the game be the
ﬁrst time that situation
arises,” Peppers said.

ASHTON, W.Va. —
Collectively getting it
done.
The Hannan boys
basketball team had four
players reach double ﬁgures and ultimately led
the ﬁnal 9:03 of regulation on Monday night
during a hard-fought
71-65 victory over visiting Wirt County in a
non-conference matchup
in Mason County.
The Wildcats (2-2)
battled through ﬁve ties
and 27 lead changes
with the Tigers (3-2)
over the course of three
quarters of play, but the
hosts broke a 48-all tie
with a pivotal 15-5 surge
over a 6:34 span — giving the Blue and White
their largest lead of the
night at 63-53 with 2:29
left in the fourth.
The Orange and Black
— who were limited to
just 2-of-12 shooting
from behind the arc in
the second half — made
a quick 10-4 charge over
the next two minutes to
close to within 67-63,
but Hannan hit 4-of-5
free throws as part of a
4-2 spurt over the ﬁnal
28 seconds to wrap up
the two-possession triumph.
In a game that featured a lot of back and
forth action, Hannan
made a critical halftime
adjustment that limited
the Tigers’ ability to
follow up a 6-of-17 performance from 3-point
territory.
The end result landed
the Wildcats their most
important win of the
young season, and it all
started with an unselﬁsh
approach on the both
ends of the ﬂoor.
“This was a great win
because everybody came
together and played as
a team. No individuals,”
ﬁrst-year HHS coach
Shawn Coleman said.
“No matter what ﬁve
we had on the ﬂoor,
we all matched up well

Wahama tops
Lady Lancers

MASON, W.Va. — Good start. Good ﬁnish.
The Wahama girls basketball team led wire-to-wire
and held visiting Federal Hocking scoreless in the ﬁrst
quarter while rolling to a 57-44 victory on Monday
night in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
contest at Gary Clark Court in Mason County.
The Lady Falcons (3-2, 3-2 TVC Hocking) received
a career-high performance from sophomore Harley
Roush, who tallied ﬁve of her game-high 19 points
during a ﬁrst quarter run that gave the hosts a 10-0
advantage.
The Lady Lancers (2-6, 2-3) countered with a trio
of 3-pointers in the second frame, but the Red and
White also produced nine points en route to maintaining a double-digit lead headed into the break.
Hannah Rose poured in seven points as both Roush
and Torre VanMatre added four points apiece during
a pivotal 20-12 third quarter surge that amounted to a
39-21 cushion entering the ﬁnale.
Paige Tolson — who was held scoreless in the ﬁrst
half — poured in eight of her team-high 17 points during a 23-18 rally attempt, but the Maroon and Gold
ultimately ran out of time in the 13-point outcome.
The Lady Falcons netted 19 total ﬁeld goals —
including a single trifecta — while sinking 18-of-25
free throw attempts for 72 percent.
Rose followed Roush with 18 points, with 15 of
those coming in the second half. Emma Gibbs was
next with a dozen markers, while VanMatre and Alesia Barnitz completed the winning tally with respective efforts of six and two points.
Fed Hock made 12 total ﬁeld goals — including ﬁve
3-pointers — and also went 13-of-25 at the charity
stripe for 52 percent.
Brennah Jarvis and Kylie Tabler followed Tolson
with eight points apiece, while Emma Beha and Alexis Smith respectively added six and ﬁve markers.
Wahama returns to action Thursday when it welcomes Miller for a TVC Hocking contest at 6 p.m.

points and pulled in 11
rebounds, while Petro
marked 15 points and
grabbed a game-best 13
boards. The duo also led

the winning total, while

straight meetings and
eight of the last 10. The
Lady Raiders’ last win
over GAHS came at Rio
Grande on Dec. 5, 2015.

Hannan junior Chandler Starkey is surrounded by a trio of Wirt County defenders during the
second half of Monday night’s boys basketball contest in Ashton, W.Va.

and our defense shined
through a little bit. We
really worked on ﬁghting through the screens
to get to the outside in
the second half, and that
extra effort paid off for
us late.
“This was a big win
for us, especially against
a bigger Wirt County
team that has played well
early on. We deﬁnitely
can take some momentum from this going
forward.”
Wirt County hit half
of its trifectas in the
opening canto, but neither squad led by more
than three points as the
guests battled through
two ties and 11 lead
changes for a slim 20-18
ﬁrst quarter advantage.
There were another
seven lead changes and
a single tie in the second
frame, but Hannan made
a 6-0 charge over the
ﬁnal 54 seconds of the
half to turn a one-point
deﬁcit into a 36-31 edge.
The Tigers — who
opened the third quarter
4-of-6 from the ﬁeld —
claimed their ﬁnal lead
of the night on a Charles
Wells basket at the 3:54
mark, giving WCHS a
46-43 edge.
Chandler Starkey
broke a 48-all tie with a
bucket at the 1:03 mark,

starting a 4-1 run that
led to a 52-49 advantage
entering the ﬁnale.
Starkey — who provided 15 of his game-high
23 points in the second
half — capped an 11-4
run with a basket at the
2:29 mark, giving the
hosts a 63-53 edge.
Wirt County, however, answered with ﬁve
points over the next 30
seconds to trim the deﬁcit in half to 63-58. Wells
got the guests to within
67-63 with 31 seconds
left in regulation, but the
Tigers were never closer.
Hannan outrebounded
WCHS by a 42-38 overall
margin, but the Tigers
claimed a slim 13-12
edge on the offensive
glass. The Wildcats also
won the turnover battle
by a small 15-14 margin.
The hosts connected on 24-of-56 shot
attempts for 43 percent,
including a 2-of-7 effort
from behind the arc for
29 percent.
Dalton Coleman followed Starkey with 20
points, while Casey Lowery and Andrew Gillispie
contributed 11 points
apiece to the winning
cause. Chase Nelson
rounded out the scoring
with ﬁve markers.
Lowery ended the
night with a double-

RedStorm beats
Cougars in Classic

Blue Jackets beat Golden Knights 1-0

By Randy Payton

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Nick
Foligno had a feeling one goal might
be enough.
Foligno scored 40 seconds into the
third period, Sergei Bobrovsky made
28 saves and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Vegas Golden Knights 1-0
on Monday night.
Foligno found the rebound after
Seth Jones’ shot and knocked it past
goalie Malcolm Subban for the only
goal in a tight, high-energy game.
“I had a way better chance earlier in
that shift and (Subban) made a heck
of save, so I was really happy to be
able to get a second opportunity,” said
Foligno, who snapped a ﬁve-game goal
drought. “Jonesey made a nice play to
put it on net, and I was able to bang it
home. It feels good to be able to help
the boys.”
Bobrovsky got his ﬁrst shutout of
the season and 25th of his career. He
repelled a late attack after Subban was
pulled for an extra skater with a minute left.
“It’s got a little scary there in the
second part of the third period,”
Columbus coach John Tortorella
said. “I thought that’s where Bob was
outstanding. He made some great
saves where the ﬁrst two periods, he
barely had work. We’re involved in
these close games, and I think we’ve
handled ourselves pretty well. Tonight
we found a way to get the result.”
Subban performed well starting
in place of Marc-Andre Fleury in the
second game of a back-to-back. He ﬁnished with 30 saves.
“It’s a tough way to lose,” Subban
said.
The Golden Knights ended a fourgame point streak that included three
victories. They ﬁnished this trip 2-1-1.
“We didn’t have a whole lot of

RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Kyle Lamotte
had a game-high 19 points and ﬁve
assists to lead ﬁve double-digit scorers
for the University of Rio Grande in a
103-50 rout of Ohio University-Lancaster, Monday afternoon, in non-conference
men’s basketball action at the Newt Oliver Arena.
A crowd of just under 650 — made
up mostly of students from Rio Grande
Elementary School and the basketball
teams at Boyd County (Ky.) High School
— was on hand for the matinee, which
also served as Rio’s sixth annual Champions of Character Classic.
The RedStorm climbed over the
.500 mark for the season with the win,
improving to 7-6.
OU-Lancaster dropped to 5-6 overall
and 0-13 all-time against Rio Grande.
Rio Grande scored the game’s ﬁrst 10
points and never trailed, leading by as
many as 30 points in the opening period
before settling on a 27-point, 49-22, lead
at the intermission.
The Cougars got no closer at any
point in the second half after the RedStorm scored the ﬁrst 10 points after
the break.
Rio’s largest lead of the day was the
ﬁnal margin of victory.
Lamotte, a sophomore from Mason,
Ohio who was playing in just his second
game after becoming eligible at the
semester break, had 10 of his points in
the second half when the RedStorm shot
61.8 percent from the ﬂoor (21-for-34).
Sophomore Trey Kelley (Minford,
OH) tallied 17 points and hit ﬁve of
Rio’s 13 three-pointers. He also had a
career-high eight rebounds in the victory.
The RedStorm also got 12 points from
freshman Joshua Anthony (Newnan,
GA) and 10 points apiece from junior
Greg Wallace (Montego Bay, Jamaica)
and sophomore Ajdin Maksumic (Konjic, Bosnia-Herzegovina) in the winning
effort.
Senior Earl Russell (Warrington, England) had a team-high nine rebounds
for Rio, which enjoyed a 59-40 edge on
the boards, while sophomore Bobby
Anderson (Catlettsburg, KY) equaled
Lamotte’s team-best total of ﬁve assists.
OU-Lancaster, which shot just 26.7
percent overall (20-for-75) and 10.3
percent from distance (4-for-39), was led
by Sean Higgins, who ﬁnished with 14
points and a game-high 10 rebounds.
Hunter McCartney added 11 points
and three blocked shots in a losing cause
for the Cougars.
Rio Grande returns to action on
Wednesday, taking on host Warner
(Fla.) University in the Holiday Inn
Express Holiday Classic.
Tipoff against the No. 21-ranked Royals is set for 4 p.m.

chances in the ﬁrst two periods, but
I thought we started to play well
when we got behind 1-0, to be honest
with you,” Vegas coach Gerard Gallant said. “We started having some
chances, and Bobrovsky made some
big saves late. It’s too bad we couldn’t
ﬁnish this road trip off on a better
note. The guys played hard but they
didn’t have a whole lot in the tank
tonight.”
Columbus is 2-2-1 in the last ﬁve
games, including a 2-1 overtime loss
to Anaheim on Saturday.
“I was so proud of the guys, the
way we answered tonight,” Foligno

said. “It was just a solid game again.
It’s a credit to everyone in the room
who understands where we’re trying
to move this thing.”
NOTES: Foligno was playing in his
800th game. … Vegas was 0 for 2 on
power plays and Columbus failed to
convert on its lone power play. … Blue
Jackets F Artemi Panarin missed the
game with a lower-body injury. Anthony Duclair, who was a healthy scratch
the past two games, replaced him a
wing on the top line. … Columbus
recalled D Dean Kukan from Cleveland (AHL) on Monday, but he was a
healthy scratch.

Steelers defense comes up big while stopping Pats
PITTSBURGH (AP)
— Joe Haden saw the ball
ﬂoating toward him, Rob
Gronkowski bearing down
on him, stretched out every
inch of his 5-foot-11 frame
and hoped for the best.
For once, the ﬁrst time
in a while, the best actually
happened for the erratic
Pittsburgh Steelers defense.
Haden’s leaping fourthquarter interception — one
in which he outjumped
both Gronkowski and New
England teammate Julian
Edelman then somehow
kept both feet inbounds
despite getting crunched to
the Heinz Field turf — and
the ensuing cathartic celebration not only served as

a critical turning point in a
17-10 victory , but appeared
to restore the swagger to a
unit badly in need of some
following a three-game losing streak.
“We were just trying to
ﬁgure out a way to get turnovers,” Haden said. “We’ve
been letting the team down
a little bit in the fourth quarter. Having a lead and things
like that. So we’ve been talking about turnovers. I feel
like being able to get that
one was big for us.”
The pick was just the ﬁfth
by the Steelers in 14 meetings against New England
quarterback Tom Brady
and their seventh of the
season. It was also the kind

of momentum-halting stop
Pittsburgh was unable to
get during its recent slide,
games in which the Steelers
led after halftime only to
have it slip away, something
that wasn’t lost on Haden.
“Having that three-game
losing streak, we weren’t
really stopping anything in
the second half of games,”
Haden said. “We really
talked about that and trying
to make it right before the
playoffs.”
The postseason is still
far from a certainty for
Pittsburgh (8-5-1), which
holds a half-game lead over
Baltimore in the AFC North
with two weeks remaining.
Yet there were promising

signs the defense may have
ﬁgured something out.
Gronkowski, who had
dominated the Steelers
throughout his career, was
held to just two receptions
for 21 yards. And while
Brady threw for 279 yards,
63 of them came on a busted coverage by the Steelers
on New England’s fourth
offensive snap and another
63 came during New England’s last-ditch drive with
Pittsburgh in something
akin to a prevent defense.
When the Patriots neared
the Pittsburgh goal line, the
Steelers forced four straight
incompletions to earn their
ﬁrst victory over the Patriots since 2011.
