    I was pissed when I saw that live! Glad I'm not the only one that caught that.

    At least Brown had enough class not to retaliate and throw his jock strap that he just juked him out of!!!

    I think I was more mad that Brown cut back, if he tries for the corner he might out run the guy or break the tackle and score, plus he might have got out of bounds and stopped the clock. I was flipping out so bad, that I missed seeing his shoe thrown.

    Me too, I was yelling at the TV. When it happened I thought his shoe came off during the play, and Coleman threw it because he was mad. I didn't realize he wrestles it off and throws it. Stay classy, Philadelphia.

    Me neither. That adds a whole new level of classlessness to it. :facepalm:

    Yeah, I thought it was pretty classless, but man, my wife was going off about it. It was pretty funny listening to her go on and on about it.

    I was thinking that too. He has the speed and had the space to get to the edge for the TD.

    Saw a story on the news about two wedding parties that had a brawl at a Philadelphia hotel last night. Couldn't help but think that the brawl had something to do with the Iggles losing to the Stillers yesterday. :-D

    I agree with you guys, I was saying that in the game day thread. Seemed so obvious to keep going to the outside but he chose to run back towards more defenders. At the very least if he keeps going to the outside he only has one defender to beat.

    Chalk it up to another one the refs botched in the game. Seems like they had a directive to focus on the Steelers! A lot of sloppy play by both sides but the penalty margin was widely in Philly's favor.

    Kurt Coleman Throwing Antonio Brown's Shoe

    That could have caused a delay of game penalty. I was surprised that Brown got back in the game in time to avoid it. I don't remember a timeout needing to be called but it was a crappy thing for Coleman to do IMHO. Also was it me or did Wallace have a really hard time catching passes with those pink gloves, lol?

    Well I'm taking the other route. I thought it was pretty classless of Brown during to call someone "snickers" and then to come out with 2 drops and a false start in the first half. Shows me he was too busy talking down to the competition he forgot how to focus. I was more mad then anything about that. Although it wasn't just him, Mcclendon and Redman and their comments during the week as well. Just shutup and play.

    Speaking of the officiating though I was surprised (I think twice) Kiesel was blatantly held and no call. We certainly didn't get the home cooking that the Raiders got when we played them.

    Not to be a downer, but that play happened in front of me and I've also seen it a few times on espn highlights, but Antonio should of scored on that play. We were all going crazy about him cutting it inside! Next play I believe was when Cotchery just fell down at the two. They settled for a FG and we were all saying those four points could come back to bite them and they almost did!

    Coleman made the highlight reel when another play was over on Sunday.

    YeahI caught that one as well. I was shocked Pouncey did not even look affected .. Would have thought those cleats would be painful on the back

    They didn't see it. To be honest I saw he lost a shoe, but didn't notice that he had thrown it like that until you guys said something about it.

    Well, there were two refs nearby, and one standing right there staring at them. They saw it. I'm not sure why they didn't throw a flag on that.
