Here it is!!
Foul on Last Play of Half or Game
1. On a foul by defense on last play of half or game, the down is replayed if penalty is accepted.
2. On a foul by the offense on last play of half or game, the down is not replayed and the play in which the foul is committed is nullified.
Exception: Fair catch interference, foul following change of possession, illegal touching. No score by offense counts.
This is why Pittsburgh couldn't decline the penalty, as it is on the offense on the last play of the game. If they rule there was an illegal forward pass (which was the call upon review), then the play doesn't count and the game is over.

With no due respect, I had zero dollars on this game but saw the replay on you tube and it was a blatant mistake. People who had money on the Steelers have a right to be pissed.
That being said, I do think you guys should keep it in one thread instead of creating new one after new one on the same topic. But, you've got every right to whine. Just like SD bettors did after Hocunuts piss poor call earlier in the year
