What started as a one-sided game, SuperBowl 43 ended with one nail-biting sensational catch by Santonio Holmes, making the Pittsburgh Steelers the new 2009 SuperBowl Champions with a 27 – 23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.
From NFL.com
“Great players step up in big-time games to make plays," said Holmes, the game's MVP. He said he told Roethlisberger that he "wanted to be the guy to make the plays for this team."
And he was.
“Holmes grabbed the ball with both arms stretched fully above his head in the back right corner of the end zone, his toes barely dragging inbounds. He fell, sat up and cradled the ball like the prize it was.”
“This thriller certainly matched last year's Super Bowl, which ended with New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress' TD catch -- with 35 seconds left, too.”
