If you can change one call, or prevent one bad event from Steelers history, which one would you choose and why?

Jesse James caught that ball… ugh.
Losing Shazier.
Shazier injury is always #1 for questions like this for me. I think we win the superbowl if he was still leading the defense that year. Not to mention the fact that it was a life altering injury and it was never a sure thing that he’d be able to walk again. The recovery he’s made is in every definition of the word a miracle and should be an inspiration to everyone.
menendhall fumble
Other than Shazier not getting hurt, AB going insane.
Rod Woodson ACL
Shazier. But more recently, that “offside” call on Haden’s (?) blocked FG against Green bay, last year
Tim Fucking Tebow.
We win the Super Bowl if they don’t cal back that Jesse James carch
Neil O’Donnell’s two interceptions in SBXXX. I’m still not over it.
tim tebow game or shazier
I prevent Tim Tebow’s pass to Thomas in OT.
The coverage against Demarius Thomas that allowed that horrific OT TD vs Tebow and the Broncos
Shazier is one, for sure. But my favorite alternate reality is one where they draft Dan Marino. Bonus is maybe Gabe Rivera’s crash doesn’t happen in that reality too?
We don’t lose to SD in the AFC championship on 1994.
We don’t lose to NE in the AFC championship in the early spygate era…big Ben 14-1 year.
Shazier doesn’t get hurt.
We draft Revis.
Toussaint doesn’t fumble in denver.
Mendenhall fumble in super bowl 45
Losing Shazier. Second on my list is erasing the fumble against the Packers in the Super Bowl.
Probably some big injury like Shazier or something in one of our 2 Superbowl losses or various AFC championship game losses.
No guarantee we even win anything that year if the Jesse James catch was ruled a catch. Pats with Brady have historically dominated us. Especially in the playoffs.

Does not drafting Dan Marino count?
