James Harrison Didn't Think He'd Score on Interception

James Harrison, who scored in yesterday's incredible 100-yard interception return, says of the play: “To be honest, I really didn’t think I’d make it all the way back” ... “My teammates threw some vicious blocks.”

Here's Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times:

From a stirring national anthem to a tingling late finish, the Steelers' 27-23 victory over the Cardinals was the greatest Super Bowl ever, one whose Roman numbers should have been XXL for its double-extra-large helping of theatrics and dramatics.
Are we agreed on this? Cardinal fans aren't too thrilled, obviously. How about the "Boss time" of the halftime show? Did that performance contribute to the "greatest Super Bowl ever"? Jeralyn's totally floored. Dan Riehl not so much ...

    I think he still didn't score. He fell in front of the goal. His knee appeared down, but by another angle it rested on a defender's hip. However, at 16 sec. into the clip, his forearm is clearly down and the ball crosses the goal afterwards. Selectively fastidious refs are worse than no refs at all.
