The Pittsburgh Steelers well represented in the Pro Bowl. Big Ben threw 2 first quarter touchdowns (as predicted by the Steeler Face), Ryan Clark forced a fumble (setting up Big Ben's second TD--a 74 yard strike to Miami's Brandon Marshall, the game's eventual MVP), and Antonio Brown just plain sparkled.
Antonio Brown, the surprise record-setting star for the Steelers this season, also shined in the Pro Bowl. Brown had several sparkling punt returns in the second half, including one that went for 45 yards. Brown also made a big special teams tackle on the kick-off after Ben's second TD, tackling the returner around the 10 yard line. Brown also played a little defensive back in the second half and intercepted a Cam Newton pass, but was out of bounds. As a receiver, Brown caught to passes for 15 yards.
Mike Wallace, the Steelers' other Pro Bowl receiver, caught two passes for 34 yards. Big Ben started the game at QB for the AFC and completed 6 of 11 passes for 181 yards.
Clark and James "Excessive Awesomeness" Harrison recorded three tackles a piece, and although he wasn't flagged during the game, NFL Commissioner said he will review the game tape and pull some reason out of his backside to retroactively suspend Harrison.
