After the Steelers‘ 30-17 loss to the Ravens on Saturday, this dog did his best Mike Tomlin sad impression.

Surprisingly, for the first time in history, the Baltimore Ravens have beaten the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs. Shocking, considering the feeling you get when thinking about this rivalry as you always think of these two franchises as exchanging right hooks.
The Ravens, though, finally lifted that monkey off their backs as they went into Pittsburgh, knocking off the Steelers 30-17 to advance to the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs.
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was obviously in a foul mood and his classic facial expressions were on full display towards the end of this one.
One diehard fan also experienced a similar reaction to that of Tomlin:
Perhaps it was the thought of Ben Roethlisberger getting hurt that had the dog-fan in such low spirits, or the thought of Jim Harbaugh on the opposite sideline providing moral support for his brother John. Whatever it was, and most likely was just the fact that his beloved Steelers lost, this dog was down in the dumps.
As far as the game was concerned, Ravens quarterback looked cool, calm and composed the entire 60 minutes. He once again looked like the “playoff Flacco” from two seasons ago in which he threw 11 touchdowns and no interceptions leading Baltimore to the title.
With the return of Haloti Ngata, the Ravens front-seven once again looked dominant and the perceived weak spot of the team, the secondary, played fantastic. Roethlisberger might have enjoyed his finest statistical season of his career, but in his only playoff game this season struggled to not make the critical mistake.
Update:
While the dog was miserable following the game, his owner broke out a couple pieces of Beggin Strips and all was right with the world once again. I’m being told his owner is using a Terrible Towel to clean up accidents in the kitchen.
