The Cardinals defense was able to stop the Steelers offense and force Pittsburgh to settle for a field goal. The Cardinals were also able score a field goal as well among a bunch of disappointing drives from both teams.
The Steelers found a rhythm on a long 10-play drive in the second quarter. They were on the one yard line on fourth and goal. Pittsburgh decided to go for it and the Cardinals stopped them.
