All is not lost in the Steel City. It only felt that way when Ben Roethlisberger suffered a season-ending elbow injury, Mason Rudolph endured a scary concussion and the defense started slowly.
Then, the Miami Dolphins built an unexpected 14-0 lead Monday at Heinz Field. The wheels were about to come off with a season on the line...until they didn't.
The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't relent and secured a 27-14 victory to keep from embarrassing themselves against the winless Dolphins in front of a national audience.
At 3-4 overall, the Steelers now reside in limbo.
