Brandon Carr Intercepts Ben Roethlisberger in Overtime, Dallas Beats Pittsburgh and Creates Madness in the NFC East
By Jason Lisk
Dallas has defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers after Brandon Carr intercepted Ben Roethlisberger and returned the ball to the 1 yard line. Dallas then kicked the field goal to win it.
Here’s where things stand in the NFC East. Washington and Dallas are both a win away from setting up a showdown game in Washington on the final Sunday for the NFC East title. The Giants’ loss today means they cannot control their own fate for the division title (they would lose a tiebreaker to either team at 10-6), but will still make the playoffs if they win the last two as a wildcard.
As for Pittsburgh, the Steelers host the Bengals next week in a true must win game. A loss eliminates Pittsburgh. A win would give them the same record as Cincinnati and the tiebreaker on head to head wins, and hope going into week 17.
