Just when it looked like the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to claw their way back into the game and were starting to find a groove offensively against a tough Philadelphia Eagles’ defense, a toss play for running back Najee Harris went very wrong, ultimately changing the game.
On a 1st and 10 from the Eagles’ 26-yard line just a few plays after a 31-yard shot on a flea flicker from QB Russell Wilson to wide receiver Calvin Austin III, the Steelers called a toss play right to Harris. Instead of catching and securing the football on the toss, Harris took his eyes off of it, causing the ball to bounce off of his chest and carom towards the line of scrimmage.
