The refs were not great today.
You know who else wasn’t great today? The Steelers. Look inward. The call is coming from inside the house.
Another week, another bad offensive first half. Every single week this board complains about officiating, but that is because we feel those calls more because our team doesn’t make plays consistently.
We had a Jacksonville team sleepwalking throw this game and we never even managed to get their pulse up. Eve if this officianting crew favored the Steelers outright, we would have lost. We put zero pressure on the Jags.
The Steelers are the problem.
The org and fans have slowly been morphing into pre-2023 Detroit, sadly.
Yeah the refs were dogshit but we won’t win games putting up 10 points
Nah, fuck that.
The Steelers win this game with a healthy Kenny Pickett.
For the officials to call that awful roughing the passer on Keanu Neal and then turn into Joe Paterno (look the other way) when that Jags asswipe pinned Pickett’s arm to his side and drove him to the ground in what looked like an attempt to injure him was absolutely horseshit.
Then the offsides call on the fucking field goal?!?
The Steelers didn’t play great but the Jags didn’t exactly deserve to win that game either with the way they played. That was a totally winnable game and they got fucked by officiating and had to deal with Mitch at QB. Ultra fucked.
