The Denver Broncos made the football world go wild back in January when they shocked the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first round of the NFL Playoffs, beating them off a Tim Tebow touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in overtime.

Pittsburgh linebacker LaMarr Woodley still looks back at the loss as a game the Steelers could have won.

In fact, Woodley thought the Broncos were an easy team to beat, as he tells The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

“What gives you motivation is not playing in the Super Bowl, getting eliminated in the first round, losing to a team we had no business losing to. It’s a team we should have easily beat. That’s motivation, watching teams play the week after us.”

The Broncos ended up losing to the New England Patriots in the next round.

What do you think of Woodley's comments?
