Anybody asking why the Steelers didn't just kneel, instead of handing the ball to Bettis? That would have been the worst coaching decision of the year. Shades of Giants vs. Eagles 30 years ago.

That is exactly what my husband said "they're going to kneel... game over..." then the fumble and we were both speechless.

Because the Colts had three timeouts and would have gotten the ball back with a little left on the clock. I'm not saying that it justifies the decision but just pointing out the rationale.
