The Bills completed an undefeated preseason with a comeback victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night. After falling behind midway through the first quarter, the team didn’t regain the lead until the final drive of the night.<\/p>\n
Buffalo got the ball with 3:20 left in the fourth quarter, down 27-20 at its own 41-yard line. WR Dante Pettis had an undefeated preseason on his mind, getting the offense moving with a 16-yard catch over the middle.<\/p>\n
QB Shane Buechele went right back to Pettis on the next play, targeting him on a deep post route. Pettis was hit before the pass arrived for a pass interference call, giving his team 40 yards in the process.<\/p>\n
Two plays later, RB Ian Wheeler ran in a two-yard touchdown, setting up a two-point conversion attempt. Buechele backpedaled with a defender in his face, finding Pettis open near the front right pylon, making the catch in the end zone for the game-winner.<\/p>\n
The Bills offense came out of halftime facing a 21-10 deficit, wanting to put up some points to start a comeback. After grinding out a first down, Buechele faked a handoff to RB Frank Gore Jr., quickly getting the ball to him through the air in the right flat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Location: Highmark Stadium Final score: Bills 28, Steelers 27 Records: Bills (3-0), Steelers (2-1) Next opponent: Bills vs.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":273727,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[15343,73,75,74],"class_list":["post-273726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-game-recap","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273726","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273726"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273726\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/273727"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=273726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=273726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
