    Steeler defensive play call on that last play cost them the season.

    someone what to explain to me what they are thinking calling that play? pure stupidity

    in OT where you cant let anything over the top that could lead to a big play beat you, where you need to keep EVERYTHING IN FRONT OF YOU.

    they have ONE back up safety in the middle of the field to cover the whole field, as Palamalu was up up at the line of scrimmage when the ball was being thrown.

    I cant even fathom it.

    Pitt needs to evaluate. Two losses to the Ravens this season and now this.

    They played what they saw, which was the run and Denver caught them stacking the box,so Tebow went to his hot route which paid off big....

    Excellent call by Denver, game over................

    Tomlin is turning into an all or nothing coach. Super bowl or wild card loss.

    I mean they played against the run and Tebow caught them. Shit happens. It's just that usually that's "oh shit i spilt my beer," and not "holy **** Tebow just threw an 80 yard touchdown pass in overtime and torched us for over 300 yards"

    once he was in the open field.. it was done, good play call..

    steelers secondary is poor and has been for a few years now...

    just look at tonight... super bowl xLV, xLIII etc any game against marsha brady

    I see nothing wrong with the call. Denver had been running on first down almost everytime and Tebow (I'm not trying to be a hater here) is not an accurate passer. With pressure, he missed a couple of passes by quite a bit. It's worth the gamble. They just lost the roll of the dice.

    Yah, what a joke this guy is, inaccurately passing for over 300 yards, leading another underdog team to a win in the playoffs. Against the steelers D. Who even with injuries had troy playing etc..

    The thing you guys are missing is Troy P has free reign on the field. Its ryan clark that's usually covering all the blown coverages he causes. It was his call to be up and his fault for biting on the fake, not the defensive play call. Besides did you see that half ass effort he gave when he realized it was a pass? At least make the attempt to run him down. No other safety in the playoffs would give that pathetic display of jogging after a guy who's only 5 yards away
