? Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens feels like he got robbed from a touchdown in Monday night’s win over the New York Giants. Pickens got his right foot down twice, but his left foot never touched the ground. It was ruled incomplete.
On Thursday night, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson had an insane one-handed grab in the end zone, but he only got his left foot and shin down in bounds. It was ruled a touchdown.
“But that’s a catch. Lmfaooo NFL Be HAVING VENDETTAS TOWARD CERTAIN PLAYERS. (Never forget I said this) p.s.,” Pickens wrote in an Instagram Story post following Wilson’s touchdown.
NFL inside Jordan Schultz is also baffled by how Pickens’ catch wasn’t a touchdown but Wilson’s was.
“The Garrett Wilson touchdown is unbelievable. The George Pickens catch from Monday night not being a touchdown now makes no sense to me. Wilson had his foot and shin down, so it counts as a touchdown. However, George Pickens got his foot down twice, but it doesn’t count,” Schultz wrote on X.

? Colin Cowherd of FS1 admitted that he was wrong on the Steelers.
âWeâve always thought heâs credible, but I think what Mike Tomlin has shown over the course of this season, and Iâm wrong on this, is that I always felt he was a little tone deaf to offense,” Cowherd said on his podcast. “But by pivoting off Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph, and Justin Fields, who had a winning record, and settling on Russell Wilson, I think it shows that he is more aware than I gave him credit for. I think I was really wrong on Pittsburgh.â

? Steelers All-Pro defensive tackle Cam Heyward touched on Diontae Johnson joining the Baltimore Ravens:
âMan, he had to go to the dark side. We just got some guys off that team, Patrick Queen and DeShon Elliott, and they’re happy to be in Pittsburgh. Now we got guys going to Baltimore. I definitely think it opens up their offense. I think it does a great job of spreading the ball around,” Heyward said on his Not Just Football podcast. “You know Diontae can create that separation that they’re looking for, and then you pair him with Rashod Bateman, Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, Isaiah Likely, and then that run game. I think Lamar Jackson got his choice of where he wants to throw the ball. I’m looking forward to playing those guys in a couple weeks.â
