The Pittsburgh Steelers out-physicaled the Kansas City Chiefs, connecting on some borderline dirty hits and at least one blatantly dirty one on two-time Pro Bowl quarterback Alex Smith in a 19-13 win.
The culprit, Mike Mitchell, has been fined for his hit:
NFL fined Steelers’ safety Mike Mitchell $48,620 for his late hit on Chiefs QB Alex Smith, per source. He is appealing.

Smith lost his mind — and rightfully so.
The Chiefs lost Kareem Hunt for a few plays after he went into concussion protocol, and Tyreek Hill after he appeared to get knocked out cold on the final drive of the game.
The Steelers walked away with a big win over the unbeaten Chiefs, but it certainly was an ugly one.
