 2011 AFC Wildcard Steelers at Broncos OT
 Tim Tebow's famous "3:16" game. Tebow stuns the injury-depleted Steelers in overtime. After falling behind 20-6 at halftime, a limping Ben Roethlisberger rallies the Steelers with 17 points in the 2nd half, tying the game on a 31-yd TD strike to Jerricho Cotchery with 3:48 left. But on the first play of OT, Demaryius Thomas gathers in Tebow's play-action pass at the Denver 38, stiff-arms Ike Taylor and outraces safety Ryan Mundy (subbing for Ryan Clark) for an 80-yd TD to win a shocker just 11 seconds into OT, making it the shortest overtime game in NFL history. Some amazing facts: Tebow, on the 3-year anniversary of wearing "John 3:16" on his eye black during the 2009 NCAA Championship Game, passes for 316 yds with an average of 31.6 yds per completion. The Steelers finish with a time of possession of 31 minutes, 6 seconds. The game's ratings peak with a rating of 31.6. And Big Ben throws a 2nd quarter INT on 3rd-and-16. |
