Steelers vs. Broncos

2nd quarter

14:44: Broncos WR Eric Decker apparently catches a pass from Broncos QB Tim Tebow and is ruled down by contact. The call is reversed and the play is ruled an incomplete pass by video review, although the video evidence appeared to be inconclusive.

12:44: Steelers WR Mike Wallace apparently catches a long pass from Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger. The play is ruled a completed pass on the field, but is (correctly) reversed by video review. The ball clearly hit the ground prior to being controlled by Wallace.

3rd quarter

8:07: Roethlisberger throws a backward pass to Wallace, who muffs the ball, which is then recovered by the Broncos. The play is incorrectly ruled a forward pass, and the whistle is blown while the ball is loose. The Broncos decline to challenge the play since the Steelers would have retained possession regardless of the challenge’s outcome because of the (incorrect) whistle.

4:52: Steelers RB Isaac Redman scores an apparent touchdown on a running play. The play is ruled a touchdown on the field. Redman was clearly down by contact prior to the ball’s breaking the plane of the goal line. The touchdown is (correctly) reversed by video review and the Steelers recieve the ball inside the one-yard line. The drive results in a Steelers touchdown.

3:45: Pass interference is called on Steelers CB Ike Taylor for contact with Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas. Taylor appeared to be making a play on the ball, in which case no penalty should have been called.

4th quarter

7:35: Broncos RB Willis McGahee fumbles the ball, which is recovered by the Steelers. The ruling of a fumble is challenged by the Broncos and is (correctly) confirmed by video review.

1:54: Steelers OLB LaMarr Woodley briefly makes contact with Tebow’s face mask while engaged with a blocker. The contact appeared to be incidental, although a penalty could have been called.
