During the first quarter of the game, the Steelers were trailing by 7 points and were trying to put some points on the board. During the crucial part of the game, Trubisky threw an interception and turned the ball over.

We needed it. I just feel good we could get it done for Bill and the rest of the coaches. I don't really like all the flak he's been getting, because it's on us as players to go out and execute. I personally feel like the game-plan has been phenomenal week-in and week-out, and when we had opportunities to make plays, we didn't make them. But we made enough tonight.

Jabrill Peppers recently came under fire for saying that his team is a** during a hot mic moment with the New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley. Nonetheless, he stepped up on Thursday and registered an interception, helping his team beat the Steelers in their Week 14 matchup.
