Roy Gerela produced a 29 yard field goal with 1:04 left to lift Pittsburgh past Green Bay 16 13. Steve Odom and Will Harrell nearly sparked a late rally on a backward pass and a reverse but wind and coverage thwarted the Packers in a 1 5 record. Bleier and Gerela starred for Pittsburgh while Brockington scored for Green Bay in a hard fought NFL clash.
