As avid Steelers and NFL fans know, a running back rushing for over 100 yards in a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers' defense is rare. Through the 2010 regular season, the last running back to accomplish this feat was Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens. Rice rushed for 141 yards on 30 carries at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh on December 27, 2009.
Through 15 games of the 2009 season, that was Le'Ron McClain (139 yards) and Willis McGahee (108 yards) of the Baltimore Ravens on December 20, 2008, a game the Cowboys lost 33-24.
McClain had an 82 yard run for a TD and McGahee had a 77 yard run for a TD. Both came in the 4th quarter.
