KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 27 (UPI) -- Ben Roethlisberger threw a second-quarter touchdown pass and Shaun Suisham kicked two field goals Sunday in Pittsburgh's 13-9 win over Kansas City.
Roethlisberger (21-of-31, 193 yards) passed for the game's only touchdown midway through the second quarter, hitting Weslye Saunders on a 2-yard pass after Steelers safety Ryan Munday set it up with pick-off of a Tyler Palko pass.
Suisham booted field goals of 21 and 49 yards before the half for Pittsburgh (8-3), which kept pace with Baltimore atop the AFC North standings.
The Chiefs (4-7) lost for the fourth straight time while committing four turnovers.
Palko, making his first home start since taking over for the injured Matt Cassel, was intercepted three times en route to 167 yards on 18-of-28 passing efficiency.
