Joe Flacco threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Houshmandzadeh with 32 seconds left to give Baltimore a 17-14 victory over the Steelers at Heinz Field today.
Baltimore got the ball on the Steelers 40 following a punt and a holding penalty with 1:28 left and no time outs. It took them only four pass plays to score the game-winner.
The outcome left both teams with 3-1 records and tied atop the AFC North Division.
Jeff Reed missed his two field goal tries for the Steelers, one of 49 yards and one of 45.
Rashard Mendenhall scored both of the Steelers' touchdowns on runs of 1 and 7 yards.
Baltimore scored on a 9-yard run by Willis McGahee that tied the score 7-7 in the first quarter, and on a 33-yard field goal by Billy Cundiff.
The Steelers have next week off and play the Cleveland Browns at home in two weeks, the first game back for suspended quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
