    The Winning Play

    That Brown Bomber on 3rd and 19 was a perfect call, perfect throw, and amazing catch. If BA called this, then my hat is off to him and I fully acknowledge his hand in this victory. There was no downside to the call. We could have drawn a flag (which we did), or made the play (which we also did). If it's a sack...no big deal. If it's a pick...it's like a punt. It was brilliant play-calling and brilliant execution!

    Ben laid it on the money. He was money all game long and rewarded my constant proclamation that "In Ben I Trust!".

    Brown made a catch that reminded me of David Tyree in the Super Bowl and the stakes weren't all that different...okay, maybe a little, but the rookie came up big in the biggest moment.

    It just became Steelers lore.

      BA didn't make that call. It was BB all the way as I quote his from his post-game conference. Time to practice the short screens, but also don't forget about the bombs. The same type of pass was made by Brad in SB X to Swannie to get us out of the hole. This time however, the catch was as focused and not as acrobatic, but we eventually scored on the possession.
      All Defense!

              in the psot game presser ben said that the call was originally comeback routes by the outside guys but ben talked BA into going deep.
