Our team were actually simply shooting ourselves in the shoe," Fields claimed. "Stumbled breeze, I assume all 3 periods, so our team may most definitely be better during that part."

Though the Steelers' early drives delayed out, Specialization showed flashes of his playmaking capacity as he accomplished his first five tries, featuring a 20-yard dart to recipient Van Jefferson." I seem like I remained in a really good rhythm, as well as I think our experts were actually relocating the round effectively," Fields claimed.

I assume the total method worked out as well as only the coordinations of every little thing worked out.".
