Everyone has been (rightfully) bringing this up, but they don't mention the story behind the score. 

The Bills had 270 yards passing and 117 yards rushing.  

The steelers had 188 yards passing and 75 yards rushing.  

Two huge plays won the game for the steelers:  A fumble on a sack in pitt territory right before the half by Allen and a blocked punt returned for a TD at their own 23 yard line in the fourth quarter.

It wasn't like pitt came out and manhandled Buffalo or anything.  Two big turnovers.  Sure, they created the turnovers and they executed the plan, but the score can be a bit deceptive to the actual tone of the game.
