While the Philadelphia Eagles were better than the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday, the officiating crew didn’t do the visiting team any favors. There were a number of bizarre decisions by the referees. During the Steelers’ final punt of the game, the Eagles were called for an unnecessary roughness penalty. Usually, this would’ve kept their offense on the field, but the officials claimed the penalty happened after possession had changed. It doesn’t seem Mike Tomlin agreed with that explanation.
“I was not,” Tomlin said Monday via the team’s YouTube channel when asked if he was satisfied with the referee’s explanation.
