Steeler legend Jerome "The Bus" Bettis was on one last ride, standing in his was of a Cinderella finish to his career was the NFL best 14-2 Indianapolis Colts. After dominating the entire game and taking possession of the ball on the Colt's two-yard line with 1:20 remaining and leading 21-18 it looked as though Pittsburgh had secured the upset victory. However, a Bettis fumble and a Ben Roethlisberger game-saving tackle led to a dramatic 46-yard field attempt by Colt's kicker, Mike Vanderjagt. The kick would sail wide right, sending Pittsburgh to the AFC Championship Game.

The only person in America who thought the Polamalu play was not an interception just happened to be the frickin' referee. Most stunning call I've ever seen in an NFL game.

[cityofchamps]

For all the idiots who cry" Big Ben won his first Super Bowl with the worst passer rating in SB history" they forget how he played AT Cincy, AT Indy and AT Denver to get to that SB, 7tds and only 1 INT and 1 rather important tackle.

[Nirvanaman]

Worst call in football history Troy intercepted that ball 100%

[onlyhightest]

This game is still great to watch 17 years later! The dream team!

[RagnarokMic]

Still can't believe they stole that INT from Troy, one of the worst calls in NFL history.

Ben saving Bettis' fumble is epic, almost a terrible end to an amazing career, might have been enough to keep him out of the HoF despite being top 10 all time.

Polamalu got screwed it was a interception

[geminiman]

Big Bens tackle that saved an entire season

[Biggdoom]

Underrated playoff game. Stacked with HOF players. Both HC Dungy and Cowher. Big Ben, bettis, Faneca, polamalu, Harrison, Manning, James, freeney, Steelers DC LeBeau. That’s 11 HOFers.

[bhsxc]

Even 13 years ago the NFL was overturning Steelers catches.

[bradeyliverio]

I'm a Dallas fan but I remember this incredible run by Pittsburgh, I'll never forget that Jerome Bettis fumble and Big Ben game saving tackle. Feels like it was yesterday

[peterkay]

Overturning Polamalu's interception with the Steelers up 21-10 and 5 minutes left was the NFL's attempt to get Manning a SB and he still blew it.

This is by far in the top 10 best games in NFL HISTORY. What a finish, what a matchup

[russdiculous]

...and this game is the reason why Vinatieri went to the Colts.

[JohnnyLooseTV]

Not enough people recognizing the amazing play rookie CB Bryant McFadden made at 1:49:30

Amazing individual effort to break up that pass to Reggie Wayne. If you watch him walk back to the huddle on defense right after that you can tell he felt the weight of that moment.

[bhmch]

1:52:11 --
Tony Dungy "He Missed it."
Bill Cowher "He missed it!"
Jerome Bettis "HE MISSED IT!"
Peyton Manning "he missed it...…"

Coming back here after 18 years so much has changed. Fun to watch the growth. Love the steelers!

[davidgv]

13 almost 14 years later I still can't believe they overturned tbat Polamalu interception. That Ben tackle was amazing too. This 2005 season brings back so many memories of my childhood.

[jrad]

As good as the colts were they sure did choke a lot in the 2000s

Big Ben saved this game for the Steelers
