Broncos in AFC title game

Peyton Manning couldn't convert a third down, his receivers couldn't catch a pass and for the better part of three quarters, the Broncos' offense looked ugly, which is probably why Manning will likely remember Sunday's game against the Steelers as one of the most beautiful wins of his career.

Thanks in large part to a defense that was able to keep Denver in the game, the Broncos topped the injury-depleted Steelers 23-16 to advance to the AFC Championship for the second time in three years.

Manning only directed one touchdown drive against the Steelers, but that was all the Broncos needed.
