There have been plenty of Pittsburgh Penguins and Pittsburgh Pirates classic games broadcast since the start of the coronavirus shutdown of live sports. Now, a recent memorable Pittsburgh Steelers game will be shown nationally on ESPN.

The network, in conjunction with the NFL, announced Thursday that it would re-air five “Monday Night Football” classics starting this coming Monday and through June 1. The fourth of such games, on Memorial Day, will be the Oct, 12, 2015, Steelers win at the San Diego Chargers.

The dramatic ending featured Steelers coach Mike Tomlin eschewing a tying field goal to instead go for it from the Chargers 1-yard-line in the final seconds of regulation. Le’Veon Bell scored on the play — barely — after showcasing his patient style in waiting for the moment to squeeze through a mass of bodies at the line.

The game also could be remembered as Mike Vick’s last hurrah. The former superstar made just one more NFL start: the following week, during which he was benched. He threw a 72-yard touchdown pass to Markus Wheaton to tie the score late in the fourth quarter, and Vick also scrambled for 24 yards on a third down with 36 seconds left in the game.

The broadcast is set for 8 p.m. May 25.
