1992 Steelers 17 vs Lions 14
In spite of occasional blizzard-like conditions and a very shaky game by the favored Steelers, Detroit finds a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The Lions seem poised to take a commanding 21-10 4th quarter lead lead after Barry Sanders scampers 42-yds to the Steelers 2-yard line. But the opportunity is squandered when Sanders is swarmed by tacklers on 3rd down and coughs up the ball (recovered by Woodson).
Detroit still leads 14-10 with under 4 minutes remaining when Woodson absolutely DESTROYS Erik Kramer on a corner blitz, forcing Detroit's 5th turnover of the day. Carnell Lake scoops up the loose ball and returns it to the Lions' 3-yd line where Bubby Brister, playing for the first time all season in relief of an injured O'Donnell, throws a 1-yd TD to complete the Steeler rally.
