PITTSBURGH

The Pittsburgh Steelers took the sheet NFL teams have used for years to decide when to go for 2-point conversions and set it on fire.

Considering how easy their offense found the end zone on Sunday against San Francisco, there may be no going back.

Ben Roethlisberger passed for 369 yards and three touchdowns, DeAngelo Williams tied a team record with three rushing scores and the Steelers overwhelmed the 49ers 43-18.

Pittsburgh (1-1) converted a pair of 2-point attempts in the first half to seize momentum and had little trouble with San Francisco (1-1). Antonio Brown caught nine passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns for the Steelers, who rolled up 453 total yards despite having the ball for only 23 minutes.
