He told Letterman that after the Packers were held to a field goal in their final drive, he was nervous.
"I'm a little worried about special teams. Every time we kick off, I kind of hold my breath," he said, citing "too many bad memories" of losing momentum with a long kickoff return by the opposing team.
But he said he breathed a sigh of relief when the Steelers were flagged for a personal foul.
"We lucked out," he said. "One of their guys punched one of our guys, got a 15-yard penalty."
"You hate to see that happen," Letterman joked.
