Home-field advantage in the playoffs was on the line. It seemed like it would become reality, when JuJu Smith-Schuster busted a 69-yard catch-and-run with 52 seconds left in the game. Then,
Ben Roethlisberger found tight end Jesse James wide open in the end zone for the game-winning score, but after thousands of replays, the refs decided that he didn’t complete the catch. Two plays later, Roethlisberger was picked off to seal the defeat.
Joe Nedney lined up in overtime for the game-winning 31-yard field goal. The kick was good, but Pittsburgh had actually called a timeout. Nedney tried again, and this time he missed, however, Dewayne Washington was flagged for running into the kicker. Third time was a charm for Nedney and the Titans.
