Notes:  Bob Griese gave up an intentional safety, setting up a 70-yard free kick by Larry Seiple, to help stave off a late Pittsburgh threat.  Miami opened up a 27-0 lead with the aid of two Dick Anderson interception returns for touchdowns before Franco Harris’ 105 yards rushing and Terry Bradshaw sparked the Steelers’ rally.  Bradshaw returned to action for the first time since he suffered a shoulder separation Oct. 28, replacing starter Joe Gilliam who was intercepted three times.  Anderson tied two NFL records with four of the six Miami interceptions and his two scores.  The defeat dropped Pittsburgh into a three-way tie with Cleveland and Cincinnati in the AFC Central.

 

Thanks Rick!
