7 / 40

To say the Broncos limped into the 2011 playoffs is an understatement. The Broncos finished the season by going 0-3, losing by a combined score of 88-40 and looking as if all the magic from their 7-1 midseason run had run out. And against the top-rated defense, the 8-8 Broncos appeared to be overmatched against the 12-4 Steelers. But the Broncos managed to give Pittsburgh everything they could handle and take them to overtime. Once they got to overtime, all it took was one play. Tim Tebow connected with Demaryius Thomas over the middle, and Thomas took off for an 80-yard touchdown to bring the crowd to its feet.
