Steeler D with the win, no goats
Fake punt was a horrible decision, but other than that, I got no complaints.
Well, one more - instead of throwing an incomplete bubble screen, should have ran it and gave them the ball back with under a minute left.
Game balls - the defense and Duck and Dionte
Goats- Jordan Berry or whomever called the fake punt.
I'm hoping that fake punt was miscommunication. No way that was by design.
Game ball to DJ. That punt return was the difference.
Diontae is going to be a good one if he puts it all together consistently.
It wasn't a fake punt call. Berry panicked. He thought it was a fake bit everyone else was expecting a punt.

Fake punt: looks like it was a miscommunication. If so, it’s on coaches. There must be double or triple confirmation in the codes Before a fake punt is run.

All 3 phases get the game ball! How much fun is this defense to watch? Hodges has shown his talent time and time again.
Goat- The coach who decided to call a fake punt ( i will not be convinced it was not called)
See you Space Cowboy ...
Game Balls Duck, Johnson, Watt, Haden and D
Tomlin says he called it. So bad call on him.

Tomlin just said the fake punt was his call.
He’s covering for Berry
Berry did have a nice punt earlier.
The other possibility is they prepared the punter to do something if they got a certain look. Usually there has to be a signal of some kind to know if the fake would be on. If that was the case, then Berry would act like he's going to punt and as the defenders follow the Steelers cover guys downfield...he takes off.
The whole thing just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense in any way.
