"That run we scored on, Kenny called it," Cole said after the game, via Pro Football Talk. "We were in the timeout, and Kenny said, ‘I want to run this.’ To see that confidence, on third-and-2 on the goal line, is big. It’s good to see, it’s exciting to see. It really showed who he is as a leader, the command he has on the field."

Pickett admitted he brought up the play to Steelers coaches.

"We have a great open communication," the first-year quarterback said. "That was the play I brought up, I felt really confident about it, they felt good about it too so we rolled with it."

Pickett led the Steelers on an 11-play, 75-yard drive that ended with the Snell touchdown and a successful two-point conversation attempt thanks to a pass to George Pickens. Pittsburgh took a seven-point lead with 9:44 left in the game and never looked back. 

On the drive, Pickett had a 13-yard pass to Snell and a 17-yard pass to Pat Freiermuth to help set up the touchdown.
