ST. LOUIS -- The start of the St. Louis Rams and Pittsburgh Steelers game has been delayed Sunday afternoon because the turf near the south end zone caught fire during pre-game introductions.

The Rams were introducing their starting offense about 10 minutes before the game when a flame from the machine that is supposed to spit fire directly in the air caught the turf.
