‘We Almost Had It’: Russell Wilson Explains Pass To Cordarrelle Patterson On Failed 2-Point Try

In the blink of an eye, the Pittsburgh Steelers went from being down 18-6 to being on top of the Cleveland Browns 19-18 in the fourth quarter thanks to a pair of splash plays from some young contributors.

Second-year outside linebacker Nick Herbig had a strip-sack fumble on Cleveland quarterback Jameis Winston, and then Steelers QB Russell Wilson threw a perfect strike to wide receiver Calvin Austin III for the go-ahead touchdown, making it 19-18 Steelers.

The Steelers made the right decision to go for a 2-point conversion. It was just the wrong call, as it ended up being a fade route to veteran running back/receiver Cordarrelle Patterson that fell incomplete.
