PITTSBURGH, Dec. 24 (UPI) -- Steve McNair threw three touchdown passes Sunday afternoon as Baltimore beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, 31-7.
Overall, McNair was 21-for-31 for 256 yards and two interceptions; Mark Clayton scored once on seven receptions for 108 yards; and Jamal Lewis scored a touchdown on 24 carries for 77 yards for the Ravens, who have a three-game winning streak and already have dethroned Pittsburgh as the champion of the AFC Central Division.
Ben Roethlisberger went 15-for-31 for 156 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions; and gained 33 yards on four rushing attempts. Santonio Holmes had five receptions for 90 yards, and Heath Miller caught a scoring pass for the Steelers (7-8), who had a three-game winning streak snapped.
Baltimore's defense sacked Roethlisberger five times, and only allowed Pittsburgh across midfield twice in the second half.
He was sacked nine times in a 27-0 loss at Baltimore on Nov. 26.
