2004 Steelers 16 vs Redskins 7
Randle El scampers through the Redskins' coverage team on punt returns of 60 and 43 yards to set up two first-half scores -- Bettis' 4-yard touchdown run, his 11th of the season, and the first of Jeff Reed 's three field goals on a blustery day. Bettis starts when Duce Staley unexpectedly sits out a fourth straight game with a sore hamstring, and responds with 100 yards on 31 carries. His 47th career 100-yard game matches Franco Harris' team record. The Steelers are 10-1 for the first time since 1975, the second of their four Super Bowl championship seasons.
