The Buffalo Bills are bullying the Pittsburgh Steelers right now. The last touchdown from Khalil Shakir was unreal. However, it’s not just the Bills who are humiliating the Steelers. It’s also the fans. In the spirit of this game, a fan decided to pick on George Pickens and Diontae Johnson.
Dov Kleiman posted an update from the sideline that shows fans throwing snowballs at Pickens and Johnson. The Bills are on a 31-17 roll and have taken on a couple of injuries. However, Josh Allen and Co. are in high spirits despite the adversity.

Pickens got up, trying to find out who did it. He looked confused and angry at the same time. And why not? After all, nothing is going according to their plan. Well, that’s not all. Amid a disappointing game, the Pittsburgh Steelers are frustrated. Pickens, in particular, is fuming on the sidelines.
Another tweet from MLFootball shows George Pickens in an angry state on the sidelines. He is seen thrashing his helmet to the ground as the Steelers trailed 31-17, and all chances of winning were fading by the minute. According to the caption of the video, the WR has been fined around $200K this season for several instances of such outrage.

However, the game ended, and the Bills completely dominated the Pittsburgh team with a final score of 31-17. Analysts thought that the Bills had a 5% chance of making it to the playoffs, but here they are, basking in glory. The Buffalo team won the game, but it came at the cost of a lot of injured players.
However, it’s not just the Bills playing good football that won them the game. It’s also the mistakes that the Steelers made.
Steelers’ early mistake leads to their season crumbling
It happened in the second quarter when the Bills were up by 14. It was the Steelers’ 2 goal when Mason Rudolph threw an interception to Kaiir Elam in the end zone. If the Steelers scored that touchdown, they would still have a chance against Josh Allen and his team.

In addition to this, Joey Porter Jr. got injured and was taken out of the game, which gave the Bills even more of an edge to march up and down the field. Mike Tomlin and his team’s season officially ended after this game.
