PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers feel like they beat themselves Sunday night.
The offense held a late lead, but the defense couldn’t make it stand as Jalen Tolbert caught a four-yard touchdown from Dak Prescott on fourth-and-goal in the final 30 seconds to help Dallas defeat Pittsburgh 20-17.
“It came down to one play,” Steelers DT Cam Heyward said. “They were on the right side of it.”
Pat Freiermuth caught a 6-yard touchdown from Justin Fields in the final five minutes to give Pittsburgh a brief 17-13 lead, but the advantage was short-lived.
