Penalty for 1st down

What was the penalty so stupidly committed while titans going for field goal that gave them a first down....i know unsportsman like conduct but what was really done??

someone on defense supposedly tried to simulate the snap

imo which is totally bone-headed. giving up a FG there wouldn't have been a back breaker, being within 1 score of the lead. Instead we give up a TD which puts us down 10 pts instead of 6

Football Night in America was showing the highlights to the game and on that particular play they said James Harrison was the one calling out the snap count.

DUMB penalty. I like Harrison, but you can't make dumb mistakes like that. The whole game may have turned on that play - okay, maybe a little overstated, but it still was a pivotal play.

Post Gazette is reporting Chris Hoke was the culprit. Dumb penalty, no matter who it was.

The penalty was stupid and we have had quite a few like that this year for a team that is vetran ladel and should know better.

It was the little things that cost us the game. After the penalty on the goal line and TD it was 24-14. If they kick a FG here it is 20-14. If Ben does not fumble at the goal line it is 20-17 and all we need is a FG to tie or a TD to win.

I hate for the Steelers to lose any game. However, I still say we take them in a rematch.

Unless, Arians calls another 20 delayed draws and other stupid shit like that.
