The Pittsburgh Steelers enter today’s game having lost their previous two, first on the road to the Denver Broncos and then at home to the Los Angeles Chargers. Each unfolded somewhat differently, the latter featuring a dominant first half that seemed only marred by a bad officiating gaffe. And then the officiating gaffes continued.
Early in the season, Head Coach Mike Tomlin criticized such an officiating gaffe when they failed to identify that a loose ball on a punt had touched an opposing player, which made it a live ball that his team recovered.
