Jets Vs. Steelers: Jets Get First Offensive Touchdown In Three Games

After three quarters, the game in Heinz Field is still deadlocked at 17.

The Steelers received the football to start the half, and put together a well-orchestrated drive which resulted in a 2-yard Rashard Mendenhall touchdown.

It was not looking good for the Jets, who were still looking to score their first offensive touchdown in three games and found themselves down a touchdown.

Minutes later, the streak was over. The Jets put together a solid drive with a lot of balance, and it worked. Sanchez found Braylon Edwards on a deep out which put the Jets in the red zone. After which, the Jets looked to conservative playcalling and found themselves in a “4th & 1” scenario.

That was when they struck. QB Mark Sanchez sold a play-fake and made it look like he was handing it off to RB Shonn Greene up the middle, but Sanchez kept it himself on a naked bootleg and ran it in for the touchdown.
