    Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers chewed up the clock and the New England defense, beating the Patriots 25-17 on Sunday for their seventh straight win at Heinz Field. They beat Tom Brady for only the second time in eight tries, denying Brady and Bill Belichick the NFL record for most wins by a quarterback-head coach combo in the Super Bowl era. Roethlisberger was 36-of-50 for 365 yards, two touchdowns and an interception that New England turned into a TD. The Steelers (6-2) held the ball for almost twice as long as the Patriots and denied Brady a final chance to win the game, sacking him to force a fumble that ended up as a safety. Brady was 24-of-35 for 198 yards and two touchdowns for the Patriots (5-2), who were coming off a bye and had a three-game winning streak snapped.
