Report: Ben wanted to spike the ball, coaches overruled him

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger told a local reporter Sunday that he wanted to spike the ball on the late-game play that led to a Duron Harmon interception in the endzone to seal a New England win. 

Just a few plays before, Pittsburgh appeared to score, but tight end Jesse James was ruled down at the Patriots' one-yard line.
