Steel City Magic: Justin Fields Stuns the Broncos and Proves He's the Real MVP

September 16, 2024

DENVER (AP) — In a game that was expected to be a nail-biter, Justin Fields and the Pittsburgh Steelers proved to be the better team as they took down the Denver Broncos 13-6 on Sunday. The victory marked Fields’ second consecutive win as the starter, filling in for the injured Russell Wilson.

Wilson, who was a spectator for most of the game, was visibly upset on the sidelines as his team struggled to move the ball down the field. It was a familiar sight for the veteran quarterback, who has been dealing with injuries all season. The fact that his team was able to secure a win without him was a testament to the team’s depth and Fields’ growing confidence as a starter.

Fields, who was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, was traded to the Steelers in the offseason and has been making the most of his opportunities. In his second start for the team, he completed 22 of 35 passes for 192 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 43 yards on 7 carries, showing his ability to make plays with his legs.

The Steelers’ defense was also a major factor in the game, holding the Broncos to just 6 points. They were able to sack the quarterback 3 times and intercept 2 passes, including a crucial pick in the 4th quarter that sealed the win for the Steelers.

For the Broncos, the loss was a tough pill to swallow. They had been hoping to bounce back from last week’s loss, but instead, they found themselves struggling to move the ball down the field. The team was able to accumulate just 274 total yards, with most of that coming from the running game.

The win for the Steelers marked their 3rd of the season, and it moved them into 2nd place in the AFC North. They will look to continue their winning ways next week when they take on the Baltimore Ravens. The Broncos, on the other hand, fell to 2-4 on the season and will look to get back on track when they face the Kansas City Chiefs.

For Fields, the win was a validation of all his hard work. He has been preparing for this moment his entire career, and to have it pay off in such a big way was a thrill for the young quarterback. "I’ve been working towards this moment for a long time," Fields said in the post-game press conference. "To be able to come in and help my team win is an incredible feeling."

The question now is, what does the future hold for Russell Wilson? With Fields playing the way he is, it’s possible that Wilson may not be the starter when he returns from injury. Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure, the Steelers have found a gem in Justin Fields.
