The last time these two teams played we saw one of the wildest, most exciting games of the Pete Carroll era. It was a showdown that would be difficult to top, but this game did its best to match it. With the Steelers limping in after a Week 1 beatdown and the Seahawks barely surviving their opener, this game had the potential to send one team soaring and the other careening towards disaster.
The Steelers started with the ball but had their opening drive snuffed out by Branden Jackson, who collapsed the pocket on third down to sack Ben Roethlisberger.
