1st and 10, Levis found Burks for 21 yards. The energy was instantly drained from the stadium. With 12:00 left in the game, the Steelers cannot afford a long drive that ends in points.

1st and goal from the 3, Johnson scored his first touchdown in a very, very long time. 119 consecutive catches without a touchdown and the streak was broken. 20-16 Steelers.
Broderick Jones called for unsportsmanlike conduct. That is enforced on the kickoff.
That was 668 days since his last touchdown. It was way too long of a streak for a player that talented.

Levi Wallace in coverage deep against Burks and it was incomplete. The Steelers need very little to wrap up this game after the injury timeout. Burks down hurt. He was down motionless after his body twisted a weird way trying to catch the ball. The cart is out. Not what anyone wants to see. We hope he is okay, but a scary scene. Burks gave the thumbs up getting carted off.
1st and 10, Harris lost 3 yards.
