While the Pittsburgh Steelers were largely successful moving the ball against the Detroit Lions last Sunday night, they struggled mightily at scoring points — a running theme throughout the entire 2017 season.
The defense, while giving up a lot of yardage, ultimately kept the Lions out of the end zone, but did allow them to get close enough for future Hall-of-Fame kicker Matt Prater to kick five field goals.
So it was, then, that the Steelers found themselves with a mere 5-point lead late in the fourth quarter as the 2-minute warning came and went.
