The Pittsburgh Steelers are now 4-3 on the season after dropping this afternoon's game at Acrisure Stadium against the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars. Afterward, wide receiver Diontae Johnson tore the on-field officials a new one, implying that they were paid to help the Jags win the game.
There was also one incident that took place on the sidelines that saw Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin absolutely losing it on the officials, screaming "What the f**k is wrong with y'all today? What the f**k is wrong with y'all today?"
And afterward, Tomlin continued to voice his displeasure with the officials performance on the field.
“I didn’t get a lot of dialogue [from the officials]. I hadn’t seen that called in 17 years of standing on sidelines. Offsides, aligned offsides on a guard, on a field goal protection,” Tomlin said to reporters following the game. “I didn’t get a lot of dialogue [from the officials]. I hadn’t seen that called in 17 years of standing on sidelines. Offsides, aligned offsides on a guard, on a field goal protection."
And Tomlin wasn't alone in his assessment, as former Vice President of NFL Officiating Mike Pereira tweeted the following:
"In Pittsburgh, offside on the offensive guard? Officials are told to call that if a lineman has his head in the neutral zone on the short yardage push plays, not on field goal attempts."
