The Pittsburgh Steelers and Green Bay Packers played one of the best back-and-forth offensive battles in Week 15 of the 2009 season. Neither team could stop each other, but Pittsburgh came out on top thanks to a 19-yard touchdown pass to WR Mike Wallace from QB Ben Roethlisberger on the final play of the game. Roethlisberger revealed on his Footbahlin’ podcast that during that game, head coach Mike Tomlin had the Steelers try an onside kick in the fourth quarter with the intent of letting Green Bay have a shorter field to score so Pittsburgh could get the ball back quicker.
