There were just under eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Pittsburgh Steelers led the New England Patriots 14-10, but New England was driving into Steelers territory. Tom Brady hiked the ball from the17-yard line, but as Pittsburgh's pass rush closed in on Brady he faded back near the 30 yard line and heaved the ball towards the right sideline at the five. There Steelers corner Joe Haden rose up and brought down the interception between Patriot tight end Rob Gronkowski and wide receiver Julian Edelman.

According to ESPN Stats and Info, it was Brady's first interception on a play in the red zone in two seasons. It was Haden's second interception of the season, and his third as a Pittsburgh Steeler.

The Patriots sit at 9-5 and are in control of the AFC East, while Pittsburgh is 8-5-1 and trying to fend off the surging Baltimore Ravens who are 8-6 after a 20-12 win against Tampa Bay today.

Pittsburgh has to head down to New Orleans to face the 11-2 Saints before they close the regular season by hosting the Cincinnati Bengals. The Ravens, their competition for the AFC North will be in Los Angles to face the 11-3 Chargers, and then they host Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland Browns.
