2004 Steelers 28 vs Bengals 17
Ben Roethlisberger continues to show uncommon poise for a rookie who wasn't expected to be thrust into a starting role so early in his career, rallying the Steelers from behind to earn his first 4th quarter comeback victory. Roethlisberger finishes 17 of 25 for 174 yards, 1 TD, 0 Ints, Staley gains 123 yards on 25 carries, Bettis scores 2 TDs and Troy Polamalu seals the game with a remarkable leaping interception and scintillating 26-yd TD return of a Carson Palmer pass (breaking half a dozen tackles and bulldozing right through Palmer on his way into the end zone) with 2 minutes remaining.
