With that TD drop, we only won 3 games that year instead of 4 and allowed us to pick third in that next draft, where we lost out on Von Miller and had to settle for Marcell Dareus.
It actually led to one of my favorite Conan O’Brien jokes of all time, because if you recall, Stevie tweeted out that he blamed God for the drop. So Conan’s joke was “Fortunately for him, he blamed the Old Testament God, who’s still on MySpace.”
Ohhh Stevie! He'll always remain my favorite overachiever in Bills history but when the moment got big he would invariably come up short. That said, he made some real great plays too. He was sometimes a frustrating guy to watch. I'll always have a soft spot for Stevie.
I love how even early in the game Stevie's inconsistency shows up. He drops multiple passes when he's open in the first half but then in the third quarter he makes a catch while being hit by Polamalu LMAO
The last few minutes of the 4th quarter and overtime were so sloppy, but so entertaining. I remember having to listen to overtime on the car radio. Way too stressful to be behind the wheel
As A Steelers Fan This Game Was WILD When Stevie Drop That Wide Open TD I Knew From There We Was Gonna Win Once We Get The Ball Back But This Game Was Really A Heart Attack Game For Me Because Im Not Gonna Lie When He Was Open Like Wide Open I Thought It Was Over 💯
15:30 as a ref how the hell do you call that?? Thats the game.. it was over with that first down and that ticky tack call looks pretty suspicious. I still remember watching it i lost my mind
Loved how Stevie Johnson went against the grain by not putting "faith" on a pedestal. Then some people actually got offended by his tweet lol. When good things happen we can be thankful towards the heavens, but when bad things happen the heavens or fate can't bare any responsibility according to a contingent of society. Hilarious.
There really should have been a Key & Peele sketch where an athlete blamed God for his team losing, complete with extra church visits, community service etc. and exasperation that it's never enough.

steelers fan here the screen i watched this game on was really small so when Johnson dropped the ball i thought he caught it and turned off the game on disgust and then went online later and realized they won lol
Thanks for the video NFL Throwback! Does anyone happen to know any games with fights or brawls that had multiple ejections from the 1990-1999 seasons? Oilers at Steelers 1996 is one game I do know had multiple brawls and ejections.
Oh man, if Stevie caught that, my ravens woulda won the north instead (given both the Steelers and ravens had 12 wins that year) and perhaps go to the Super Bowl like the Steelers did. It’s funny such little things like a dropped catch could have dire effects on many other teams lol.
@@jeffreyv8306 ravens were blowing the steelers out in the playoffs (b4 they choked) and swept them the next year, since you wanna mention who was the better team 🤷🏾♂️
Yeah. The only difference would be that when they play the Ravens in the playoffs that year, the game would have been in Baltimore instead of Pittsburgh
The Stevie Johnson ball that was catchable will be remembered for years
Indeed, he probably didn't sleep well that night. Ish happens!

When you think the Bills of the 2000s. That play might best describe for them
Big Ben’s 3rd and 16 conversation was one of the greatest things I ever saw
Oh yeah? What did they talk about?
@@KiloMafia9 the escapability of Roethlisberger
@@ST0NE_206 And he’s GOT THE 1ST DOWN!!!!!!!!!
@@ST0NE_206 Yeah he escaped from the justice system that same year!

“The escapability of Roethlisberger!”
"Ohhhh, he's got the first down!"
Ohhh Stevie! He'll always remain my favorite overachiever in Bills history but when the moment got big he would invariably come up short. That said, he made some real great plays too. He was sometimes a frustrating guy to watch. I'll always have a soft spot for Stevie.
He was one of the only receivers who could get the best of Revis when he was in his prime…. Loved Stevie!
@@bidsole2808 yep! Revis Island, population: Stevie Johnson!
You'd think the pressure is off when his team is 2-8.
I love how even early in the game Stevie's inconsistency shows up. He drops multiple passes when he's open in the first half but then in the third quarter he makes a catch while being hit by Polamalu LMAO
games like this is what plagued Pittsburgh for years. Playing down to the comp
Fred Jackson was a PPR machine
What a game for Polamalu 💥💥
14:32 what did Fitzpatrick think he was doing lmaoooo
19:35 he woulda been Buffalo’s hero if he hadn’t dropped the football.
The game that gave us Bill's mafia

my boy went on Twitter and said GOD WHYYYYY ? after this😂😂😂. nah but stevie was a baller tho
NFL throwback boom another great game thanks for uploading it
how do you drop that, must have haunted him forever
As a bills fan I actually remember this game as the game Chris Kelsey should have had 7 sacks
NFL Throwback jerseys are always nice to see
Stevie Johnson was the original Keenan Allen.
I feel bad for Johnson. He had to live with that drop for the rest of the season
the season was almost over anyway
2-8 bro 😂
More like the rest of his life

Every Steelers game is a heart attack lbr
Kelsay #90 of the Bills was an underrated pash rusher.
I remember seeing this happen on tv, wild
That hit from harrison on fitzpatrick was awesome, if it was a penalty back then you knew it was good 😂

“How about Roethlisberger!!!”
I was at this game... Good memories
I’m not even a Bills fan and watching Stevie drop that ball 12 years later is painful.
“HE’S GOT JOHNSON”
This was the catch that should of broke our playoff drought we needed this win to get in
I think you're thinking of the game between these 2 teams in week 17, 2004; this game is from 2010.
Yeah... not even close...
honestly tho Big Ben's 3rd and 16 down was one of the greatest things i've seen
12:51 OH! HES GOT THE FIRST DOWN!
steelers fan here
the screen i watched this game on was really small so when Johnson dropped the ball i thought he caught it and turned off the game on disgust and then went online later and realized they won lol

The Steelers need to hang around to have a shot Sunday.
Stevie nooooooo
12 Years Ago
Why you do me like that God?!?
Fitzpatrick put that ball in Stevie Johnson's hip pocket and he dropped it.
19:35 “HE’S GOT JOHNSON! OH HE DROPPED THE BALL! That would’ve been the game winner!”
-Kevin Harlan
The video title 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Two things I won't forgive in Bills franchise history. McKelvin not kneeling on the kickoff on MNF at New England, and Johnson's drop in this game.
Scott Norwood?
Oh man, if Stevie caught that, my ravens woulda won the north instead (given both the Steelers and ravens had 12 wins that year) and perhaps go to the Super Bowl like the Steelers did. It’s funny such little things like a dropped catch could have dire effects on many other teams lol.
*Ravens
Except the steelers beat the ravens in the playoffs that year anyway. Only difference is the game would have been in Baltimore instead of Pittsburgh
@@jeffreyv8306 lol you don’t think homefield advantage matters?
@@bdawg2690 no. the better team wins
@@jeffreyv8306 ravens were blowing the steelers out in the playoffs (b4 they choked) and swept them the next year, since you wanna mention who was the better team 🤷🏾♂️
19:30 Heart. Break. City.
"Ohh he drop the ball. That would've been the game winner". I'll never forget that
I swear Ben beat Fitzpatrick with every team he played for lmao
He did! Ryan Fitzpatrick retired 0-8 against Pittsburgh.
I hated the Steelers more than the Bills around this time. Stevie dropping that td and blowing the game was infuriating!
Yes sad
I remember this game Stevie Johnson was a beast
2010-2012 he was averaging 1000 yards per season
How about those throwback uniforms?
"5 drops today" is crazy
Yessir🔥🔥🔥
That man Stevie Johnson had like 5-6 drops this game yikes
Real ones know about, the tweet.
12:36 God that was insane!
That one hurt...
Damn 😂 #68 sold hard on those holding penalties. Steelers punted from own end zone, Stevie drops the ball, Suisham was money. What a game.
Does this Steelers team still make the Super Bowl if Johnson catches that pass?
I think it definitely changes the playoff picture. Pittsburgh moves to the #6 seed, ravens #2, and jets #5
Yeah. The only difference would be that when they play the Ravens in the playoffs that year, the game would have been in Baltimore instead of Pittsburgh
Nostalgic
68 for the Steelers had a ROUGH day
I Miss Ben Roethlisberger
All about my Bills like I'm Stevie Johnson. 25 sittin' on 45 mil
nice title.
The game that led to the birth of Bills Mafia.
Kyle Williams was a beast
Im sure Mendenhall wont fumble again in a very important moment...
Ben was niiiiice back in the day
19:38
stevie johnson he knew when he drop the ball that was it steelers go down the field make a field goal
Can you please do more 49ers games from Candlestick Park?? Pretty please??
And what would that be??
the stevie johnson blames god game
Raiders vs Chiefs, Jacoby Ford Game
Rashard FumbleHall coughed up the Super bowl in this season 😮💨
I hope the Steelers win this Sunday life‘s been really beating me down I just want a win
Steelers are trash! got blown out last week. 38 - 3
😂
Bills are trash
As a bills fan I can say we watched some terrible football for dang near 2 decades.
More like Stevie Dropson
Polamalu the 🐐
I like this game bc buffalo lost
