Resilient Broncos outlast
Steelers 31-28 with another last
second victory
Jason Elam kicked the
game-winning field goal but it
was Jay Cutler, bouncing back
from the Broncos most lopsided
home defeat, that put Denver in
a position to pull out a
hard-fought victory over the
Steelers.
Cutler tossed three touchdown
passes to offset several
mistakes and outplay Steelers QB
Ben Roethlisberger, who had
three turnovers and was bothered
all night by an active Broncos
pass rush.
Roethlisberger led the
Steelers on two fourth-quarter
scoring drives that tied the
score with 1:10 left before
Cutler worked the Broncos
two-minute drill to perfection...more
SN Preview: When NBC
hand selected this match-up
before the season started,
there’s no doubt they expected
both clubs to be sporting
positive records. That is the
case for Pittsburgh whose only
lost one game to date (4-1), but
it’s certainly not the story in
Denver...more
