Riding a six-game winning streak the Pittsburgh Steelers went into Denver and did many things well. Taking care of the football was not one of them however as they repeatedly shot themselves in the foot in losing to the Broncos 24-17. The most egregious of all came at the end when Ben Roethlisberger was intercepted by a defensive lineman at the goal line. It was the perfect culmination to a comedy of errors that cost this team a victory.
After having a field goal blocked, the Steelers fell behind 3-0 but a brilliantly called and executed throwback to Xavier Grimble resulted in a fumble out of the end zone.
