Demaryius Thomas’ 80-yard overtime touchdown catch that handed the Steelers one of the most stunning upset losses in their 80-season history is widely available for viewing online.

The NFL’s website offers a replay not only of that play but also the entire game, for a price.

The one place where the how-did-that-ever-happen, Tim Tebow-to-Thomas pass wasn’t seen this week was in the Steelers’ defensive meeting rooms.

“I think they’re better served looking at Peyton Manning rather than looking at that video of last year,” Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau said Thursday.........

I agree

The most heartbreaking lost in 2011 was against the Ravens in SNF...against the Broncos, the Steelers were not healthy

It's not as if the Steelers have lost super bowl when he was 18-0

Agreed. There was no excuse for that horrific excuse of a game when we opened against the Rats.

Also since 1990, the loss against the Broncos is perhaps the least heartbreaking in the 12 playoff losses that the steelers have

Each playoff loss is tough for me, but I had a worse feeling after the loss against the Packers, Jaguars and patriots

And I think that the defeats against the chargers, broncos(1997) and cowboys were the worst for those who watched the NFL in the 1990s!

When it comes to playoff losses, 2011 against the Broncos was pretty tame. Doesn't mean it didn't suck, but it doesn't make it nowhere near the top.

Most Painful to least painful playoff losses since 1990 (IMO).

1) 1994 AFC Championship
2) Super Bowl XXX
3) 2001 AFC Championship
4) 1997 AFC Championship
5) 2004 AFC Championship
6) 2002 Divisional
7) 2007 Wildcard
8) Super Bowl XLV
9) 1993 Wildcard
10) 1992 Wildcard
11) 2011 Wildcard
12) 1996 Divisional

It was at the bottom of my list as well, because I knew we were not a team built to go deep in a road playoff run. My expectations were very low...although I thought we could beat a team without a QB. Shows what I know...

I'd gave to throw in the 76 AFCC game in there. Yeah we knew we had no Franco or Rocky but we thought we would have a chance.
