I also thought the Steelers had some calls against them that were fortunate judgement calls for the Bengals. Nothing like that TD, though.

In the end, regardless, the Bengals literally had the ball in their hands and the Steelers took it. That's on the players and coaches. Not the officials at all.

Agree with that, they had it won, Hill coughed it up, then all hell broke loose.

The calls that stick out to me were the TD you alluded to, the hit on Bernard, no call on "Jerry" Porter, and the call on Shawn Williams for a completely clean hit.  In the instance of Jerry Porter, if he gets flagged instantly, as he should have, the argument could be made that he offsets Burfict, and Pacman never approaches him to draw a flag.  Then, you have an impossible FG with a wounded QB.  It was an ugly night all around for both teams, the officials, and some fans.
