DEN wins coin toss, elects to defer. PIT elects to receive.

Tebow is Tebowing by himself near the end zone.

Would expect PGH to live in 11 personnel, with 3 WRs. Ben in shotgun-everything comes out quick. Tons of matchups with PGH's receivers over DEN's DBs-outside of Champ

Steelers really need to start off fast and build a huge lead in the 1st half so they can rest Big Ben in the second half.

Steelers RB Rashard Mendenhall is out for the playoffs. It's Isaac Redman the rest of the way. He has outplayed Mendenhall at times this year.

[Stardust]

The Steelers will be without RB Rashard Mendenhall, who suffered a torn ACL in Week 17. Mendenhall averaged just 3.99 yards per rush since the start of 2010, fifth-worst among the 28 players with at least 300 rushes over the last 2 seasons. Isaac Redman, who is expected to start, is averaging 4.45 yards per rush over that span.

M.Prater kicks 65 yards from DEN 35 to end zone, Touchback.
