The Titans won the toss in overtime and moved to the Steelers’ 16 yard line as Steve McNair found Justin McCareins with passes of 31 and 22 yards to the Pittsburgh 16.

After Robert Holcombe ran for three yards, Titans coach Jeff Fisher called on Nedney to kick a 31-yard field goal on second down. Nedney missed, but was clipped by Pittsburgh’s Dewayne Washington, and the running-into-the-kicker penalty gave Nedney a second chance from 26 yards.
