If the first quarter was any indication, it is going to be a long day in Pittsburgh for the Miami Dolphins. In a start that could not be stronger for the Steelers, the team leads 14-3 thanks to two long catch-and-runs by Antonio Brown.
There were no surprises in the game-plan, as the Steelers employed their tried-and-true approach to offense. Ben Roethlisberger deftly used Le’Veon Bell and his various other receiver options to soften up the Miami defense just enough to create openings for Brown, who used his ability to get open, and his breakaway speed, to race for touchdowns of 50 and 62 yards.
