The Cincinnati Bengals completely collapsed in the final two minutes of their thrilling and embarrassing 18-16 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday night. The Bengals had the ball, up one point with less than two minutes to go and somehow lost the game with a fumble and a series of personal foul penalties, all to an opposing quarterback with an injured throwing shoulder.
One of the late miscues was on Adam “Pacman” Jones, who committed a personal foul that moved the Steelers from the edge of field goal range into chip shot territory. After the game, Pacman took his frustrations straight to Instagram with a since-deleted NSFW rant towards officials and Steelers outside linebackers coach Joey Porter, saying “F***in’ ref did a horrible f***in’ job.”

His frustrations with Joey — not Jerry — Porter stem from Porter’s presence on the field in the deciding sequence of the game when Steelers receiver Antonio Brown was illegally hit in the head by Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict. Jones confrontation with Porter afterwards earned the Bengals an additional 15-yard penalty.

After the game Jones was seen sobbing on the bench.
Eventually Pacman did calm down, even though he still doesn’t believe he should have been flagged for the incident with Porter.
