It was supposed to be easy. It was anything but that. The Pittsburgh Steelers are 8-0 despite having quite the scare against the Dallas Cowboys Sunday in Texas.
This marked the fifth straight Pittsburgh-Dallas game with a fourth-quarter comeback. However, it was unlike others as the Cowboys started Garrett Gilbert and he led them to a 19-9 lead before the Steelers came to life.
The Steelers got 15 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to come away with a 24-19 victory. Ben Roethlisberger threw a pair of touchdown passes sandwiched by a Chris Boswell field goal as the unbeaten Steelers rallied.
Ebron is IN!

The Steelers knocked down a last-gasp attempt by Garrett Gilbert to throw a TD pass for the game-winner. And for the first time in their history, the Steelers are 8-0.
