The drive ended with 1-yard touchdown run by RB C.J. Anderson and a successful 2-point conversion when Manning tossed it to WR Demaryius Thomas.
The 23-16 win over the Steelers puts Manning and the No. 1 seed Broncos in the AFC championship game against the New England Patriots.
This will be the fifth time Manning has faced former Michigan QB Tom Brady in the playoffs. The rivalry is tied at 2-2 in postseason play.
