Game ball: QB Landry Jones
After Mike Vick managed just three completions for 6 yards and left with a hamstring injury, Jones stepped in and led the offense to scores on four consecutive possessions, including two touchdowns, in his first NFL game. He did not have an interception and finished with a passer rating of 149.3. "He was just waiting for the opportunity," guard David DeCastro said. "You could tell he was ready when he came into the huddle. There were no nerves at all. He went out and did his thing."
X's and O's
Making his first appearance after serving a four-game suspension and sitting out last week because of a knee injury, Martavis Bryant put his big-play abilities on display again when he caught a short 10-yard slant, made two defenders miss when he reversed his field and ran the rest of the way for an 88-yard touchdown that gave the Steelers a 25-13 lead.
