Watch: Cam Heyward unleashes his inner beast with clutch 4th down sack

Steel City Underground will pick a play of the game from each side of the ball each week of the Steelers 2020 season. Stay tuned as we hand-select the very best from the Black and Gold!

After tonight’s game, I can only think of three words. GROWN *SS MAN.

Cameron Heyward made his presence felt tonight and he made one of the most clutch plays in his excellent career tonight to help seal the Steelers hard-fought 24-19 win over the Dallas Cowboys.

After the Steelers offense took the lead for the first time in the game, Dallas was driving down the field with consistency.  After stiffing up later in the drive the Steelers forced a 4th and 8 on the Dallas 41-yard-line.

Dallas goes gun with a trey-left formation and snaps the ball and immediately the Steelers display instantly why they are the best pass-rushing defense in the league. Cam Heyward uses all of his strength and drives straight through the Dallas left guard, clubs with his left arm, and hunts down Garrett Gilbert. Gilbert tries to escape, but like a lion on a gazelle, Cam snags his prey and does not let go as T.J. Watt comes in to help secure a 17-yard sack to end the drive.

This one play at the end helped redeem a team that was getting out-coached and out-played for three and a half quarters. Tonight’s game also showed us that this team has a heart of giants that will not quit, falter, or fail when called upon when the game is on the line.

Does this team have issues? Yes. Does this team still have things to address on offense? Yes.

Is this team still UNDEFEATED? YES!

Regardless of what the talking heads say tomorrow morning, this team fought hard and survived an ugly win. However, in my book, a win is a win.
