Looks like another dumbass game plan for the 1st quarter. If Arthur Smith can learn to script better he’d be the best OC in probably the past 2 decades. That’s a glaring weakness so far.

The ref could have controlled the game right there. Give Eagles and Steelers penalties with the next time ejection thing and move on. But nope, punish Washington because he kept blocking too long.

I didn’t see a flag until #27 threw a punch.

Me neither, it was a bad call but I’m sure the Steelers will get an apology on Wednesday.

What the hell is roughing the long snapper? He got pushed into the snapper.

And that’s why you don’t commit a ton of money a RB.

Down by 2 TD in the 4th. How about throwing the ball?

And Watt gets his almost annual injury that will take him out of games when they matter to still never win a playoff game this season.

I’m diagnosing a high ankle sprain for Watt. I’m sending the Steelers my bill.

22’s fumble and coach’s decision on 4th & 7 when D was exhausted loom large in my eyes as to how this half/game was lost. Really disappointing to see a close game absolutely pissed away in such a manner. Obviously neither were sure things but they were certainly game-altering.

The fumble just killed the game.

The refs didn't help either. You can see the ball clearly leaving after Heyward gets slapped. That and the double personal foul that should have been offsetting penalties, which possibly cost the Steelers a TD. I'm sure the Steelers will get yet another letter or two from the NFL.

No way this should have been a double personal foul. If Slay doesn't punch Washington there is no penalty at all.

Jeez, seeing these two replays makes it all the more infuriating.

I guess rule 12, article 11 would imply that if the officials and league ruled punches were thrown, players would be ejected. Not a great situation to eject Slay and Mitchell in the first quarter of the game. Still could have ruled offsetting and moved on.

I agree and it's weird they didn't call that. The NFL actually denies there were punches thrown, what a joke.

17 officiating crews in the NFL. 16 are assigned games this week. Want to guess which crew doesn’t get a game this week?

Okay, I need to plan my Christmas day meal. Is the kickoff of the Christmas game actually at 12 noon (as opposed to when TV coverage begins)?
