Antonio Brown does something just about every week to etch a new place in the Steelers record book. Sunday against the No. 1 defense in the NFL, Brown did something unprecedented in the modern era of the NFL.
Brown became the first player since the 1970 merger to catch 15 passes in a game twice in the same season. Brown had 16 catches for 189 yards and two touchdowns, including the winning score in the fourth quarter of the Steelers’ 34-27 victory. Last month against Oakland, he had 17 catches for 284 yards.
“He’s something special,” Denver coach Gary Kubiak said.
