Ben Who?
Steelers Win Opener

Last nights' regular season broadcast debut game on NBC was a seesaw battle between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Miami Dolphins.

The Steelers prevailed 28-17 with a fourth quarter rally which included an 87 yard reception by TE Heath Miller and an interception return for a TD by linebacker Joey Porter.

Some noteworthy stats for you fantasy guru's out there. Willie Parker, Steelers RB, gained 115 yards on 29 carries. Charlie Batch threw for three touchdowns and Heath Miller had 3 receptions for 101 yards.

Culpepper in his debut after a severe knee injury looked solid until his fourth quarter interception, throwing for 262 yards, but did have two interceptions.

In week 2 the Dolphins will host the Bills, while the Steelers will travel to Jacksonville for the Monday night game. (photo/Getty Images)
