Second half played in a snowstorm
Based on memory this had always been one of my favorite regular season Steelers games but after watching excerpts of this not a lot happens - sort of defensive struggle that led to the rules changes to open up passing game:chuckle:
Video runs out before Ken Anderson's throw into end zone on 4th down was broken up to end game
Link to the SI article on this game and a great SI cover
