From flustered to fabulous

New England Patriots - 31
Pittsburg Steelers - 17
2:35 left in the 3rd qtr

Just before Ben Roethlisberger let go of the ball on 4th and 5 from the NE 30 with 2:45 left in the 3rd quarter, I said the words "Wow, he's flustered!" It looked like this play would be the one to end the Steelers' season. Instead, it preserved it. Roethlisberger floated the ball over New England defenders to Hines Ward for a 30 yard touchdown pass to once again cut into New England's lead.

Pittsburg has found the endzone twice on its two second half possessions. If the Steeler defense can make another stop, this game could be very interesting come the fourth quarter.
