You’ll be shocked to hear this but the Bengals and Steelers were involved in some extra curricular shenanigans along the sidelines. I know, right? That never happens between these two teams. The incident occurred after Jordan Todman was pushed out of bounds by Reggie Nelson. Then, in the ensuing skirmish, Steelers coach Mike Munchak grabbed Nelson and shoved him (and maybe pulled his hair).
The referee was right on top of the play and correctly issued an unsportsmanlike penalty on Munchak. Because, you know, you can’t do that.
As we mentioned earlier in the week, this is the hate-filled playoff game we’ve all been waiting for. There’s no love lost between these two teams. It started with the Le’Veon Bell injury in November and it’s spiraled out of control from there, with several members of the two teams threatening each other on social media.

Regardless of who wins/loses, the NFL will likely come down on Munchak for his extracurricular activities.
