The Pittsburgh Steelers are showing a lot of new faces on defense and so far many of them are stepping up against the Dallas Cowboys. Late in the second quarter, the Cowboys went for it on fourth down and with a long completion had the conversion.

But cornerback Justin Layne never gave up on the play, forcing a fumble on Dallas WR Malik Turner with Pittsburgh defensive back Antoine Brooks Jr. smartly picking up the fumble and flipping the field for the Steelers.
