Worst loss?

This is where I am.  We screwed ourselves by not kneeling and taking the FG, which led to a fumble.  I understand the thought process there, and it was sound thinking, but it ultimately was the wrong call to make.

That screw up led to the dumb shit that ended the game.  I would have been fine with off setting penalties and the Steelers with a shot at a 50 yarder.  If they make it, they make it.......but gift wrapping the damn thing was just the icing on the cake.  Jones needed to be the bigger man there, but I have no doubt they sent Porter out there to instigate.  Reports are he received a game ball for his "heroics".
