NFL Winners and Losers: Steelers are riding Le'Veon Bell, but will they pay him? (Shutdown Corner)

In the history of the NFL, very few players have had a day better than Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell had dancing through the snow on Sunday.

According to pro-football-reference.com only five players in NFL history have had at least 298 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns in a game: Adrian Peterson, Priest Holmes, Jerry Rice, Jerome Harrison and Bell on Sunday (Billy Cannon did in the AFL). Bell had 236 yards rushing and 62 yards receiving in a 27-20 win over the Bills. Nobody in Steelers history has ever had more rushing yards in a game.
