2017 Steelers Week 1 Offensive Play of the Game: AB seals the victory
Steel City Underground will pick a play of the game from each side of the ball each week of the Steelers 2017 season. Stay tuned as we hand select the very best from the black and gold!
The offensive play of the game was Antonio Brown’s deep catch late in the fourth quarter. To set the scene, it was 2nd and 12, with a little under 3 minutes left, and an urgency to keep the ball out of the Cleveland Offense’s hands, Ben Roethlisberger finds Antonio Brown deep for 38 yards up over two defenders!
This is the Steelers offensive play of the game because of this catch does not occur, the Steelers could’ve very well ended up giving the Browns back the ball, with plenty enough time to score. The impact alone of this catch makes this decision a no brainer.
