As first reported by The Score
, Steelers WR Antonio Brown took to Twitter to vocalize his frustrations with the officiating in last night’s 30-23 win over the
. He has since removed his tweet.
The frustration for Brown in particular was a call that was originally ruled a touchdown catch for him midway through the 4th quarter. Despite the replay proving to be inconclusive on replay (at least from the announcers’ prospective), the call was reversed and Brown was ruled out of bounds.
Despite the controversy surrounding the play, Brown still managed to make a positive enough impact on the game, as his team pulls to 4-3 on the season, just 1 game back in the AFC North of the first place Baltimore Ravens.
Plus, I cannot speak for Brown, but I would personally be happy with this highlight on my resume regardless.
That beauty of a trick play, is a throwback to the days of Hines Ward. A reverse pass by Brown to Lance Moore for the touchdown. Surely, a work of art for Steelers fans and a nice bit of nostalgia from the early to mid 2000s.
