Peyton Manning was in a similar situation a few years ago, but in the 4th. Coach decided to kneel on it. They lost. Was a playoff game IIRC.
I believe you're talking about the 2012 Ravens at Broncos playoff game. Baltimore had just hit a miraculous 70 yard TD with about :20 left. Peyton really wasn't playing all that well, and it was about 8 degrees in Denver that day (the two aren't unrelated, btw). 20 seconds, one timeout, needing at least 50 yards for a realistic FG shot, taking the knee may actually have been the right move.
One of the best playoff games in NFL history, by the way.

That's it but i thought there was more time on the clock. And iirc he ways having one of his best years ever. You are probably right on specifics but I remember very vividly that I thought it was a bad move with.. and it ended up costing them..
