Santonio Holmes' Super Bowl XLIII Catch According To Tecmo Super Bowl

With 43 seconds left and down by 3, the Steelers Ben Roethlisberger threw it to the corner of the endzone over three Cardinal defenders to Santonio Holmes. Holmes somehow managed to tap his feet down for the touchdown, giving the Steelers the lead in what was one of the most incredible catches in Super Bowl history.

Here's what that play would look like on Tecmo Super Bowl.

Reverse angle at :46 seconds is genius.

What's the deal with people saying the Cards deserved it more??? If they deserved it more, I do believe they would have won, however, they LOST. Your little Arizona Cardinals lost fair and square. Get on with your lives Cardinals fans!!

This is great, thanks for making it. Too bad you can't recreate the Immaculate Reception.

@artemis131313 This proves the genius of some people nowadays. Look at the calls from an unbiased viewpoint. There were an atrocious amount of penalties called against the Cardinals that didn't happen, a ton not called against the Steelers, and even reviews of plays that were botched. This was a joke of a superbowl, the day after when I went to school everyone was discussing the refereeing. That doesn't happen with a fairly reffed game.

Anyways, have a nice day.

@mattryanownz What a stupid opinion to have. Then again, you're probably an idiot anyways.

@mattryanownz

I can understand why people were upset over the officiating that favored the Steelers in Super Bowl XL....but this time around I don't see what everyone was complaining about.

@ChaoticDarkShadow

The Cards didn't blow it at all, the Steelers were just THAT good that year.

@m1ghtysauc3, yeah, you always hear about a team "deserving it more (see 2009 Saints)." But the hard truth all too often is this: Sometimes the better teams loses. Sometimes the one who "deserves it more" doesn't get it. Sometimes, evil triumphs over good....that's sports.

I like how Ben and Holmes have identical builds, and linebacker pads.

[ChaoticDarkShadow]

@m1ghtysauc3 yep I fucking the cards just B/C of this they could have it all under control NO! they blew it

[mattryanownz]

@tylerdurden869 Yes the Cardinals deserved to be there, they beat every team legitly. The Steelers in my opinion probably paid the refs off. Not looking for an argument, just stating my opinion. Anyways I'm a Falcons/Bears fan so I don't care either way. (If your going to complain I replied to your comment that you posted a year ago I don't care its in the highest rated.)

-Have a blessed day
