On Saturday, the Pittsburgh Steelers played the Jacksonville Jaguars in Florida as they began the second week of the NFL Preseason with their first and only away game of the preseason series.

sport pundits note that rarely does the ultimate result of an NFL preseason game matter, as it all comes down to how well individuals and positional units execute. And the win was forced.

It is unknown what caused the fracas and what the size of damage to the stadium and whether anyone was badly hurt. Towards the end of the two-minute video, police officers allegedly arrived to break up the fight.
"The saddest thing about fights at public events is how no one actually knows how to throw hands, and they just flail their arms wildly in the air," one of the Twitter users said of the stadium clash. "This tweet brought to you by a fight at the Steelers jaguars preseason game."
As the club enters the halfway mark of the preseason, the Steelers are set to host the Detroit Lions next Sunday. The Jaguars will play the Atlanta Falcons next Saturday.
