    Antonio Brown Threw Football at Teammate Before Sitting vs. Bengals

    Probably a good thing that they didn't make the playoffs, this team is in disarray.

    According to Gerry Dulac and Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Brown threw a football at one of his teammates in an "unspecified heated dispute" during a walkthrough before practice Wednesday and then decided not to practice for the remainder of the week. He was reportedly not present for Saturday night's team meeting.

    Per Dulac and Bouchette, Brown expected to play Sunday and was at the stadium, but he was declared inactive and left at halftime.

    WOW

    Good time to dump the talent thats left...Ben old, Brown a distraction, Bell gone

    Team can't keep beating Cle and Balt

    Might be a good time for Tomlin to go out on top...can say he never had a losing season

    Cleveland will be a playoff team for years to come book it. Will have a super bowl ring within 3-5 years or sooner.

    Antonio Brown is a team cancer and coach killer. What can a coach do to control a knuckle head player? I mean last year in the playoffs this guy goes on IG Live in the locker room and exposes the team speech after the game where Tomlin is talking about facing the Patriots, who the penetrate does that? Now this year before a big game to make the playoffs he’s throwing shit and arguing with Big Ben and then removes himself from practice, no coach can stop things like that from happening, add to that the team not bringing in Bell for a few dollars. The only thing I’ll blame Tomlin for is for the loss to Oakland and Denver, that’s on him but to say he needs to control his players better, that’s almost impossible, look at Odel Beckham, look at other star NFL players, these guys are divas who get coaches fired and have no problems sleeping at night. How the hell can you walk out on your team for the biggest game of the year and still look them in the face? If the Steelers made the playoffs id agrue Brown shouldn’t even play after pulling that stunt and I’m a Steelers fan.

    Steelers not in the playoffs is a surprise this year.. Players obviously on nerve because of that.. Gone fishing...

    Would be in if the Colts didn't make a made run at the end of the season.. Ben and the boys will sit this one out.

    And through all the turmoil, Ben leads the league in passing.
    Say what you want about Ben the human being, Ben the QB deserves better.

    Brown is a low class very ghetto type person he can live out of a garbage can and be very happy


    These people are just from some sort of a generation maybe 200 years ago and it’s very bizarre they just do not know how to act or conduct them selves on a daily basis


    Just trade him you don’t want people like this

    Tomlin lets the players get away with anything, team is imploding. Could see Pitt falling under .500 next season and then they'll fire Tomlin. Just do it now and save a season.

    Look at the teams that kept coaches that should have been fired. Bowles and Jackson. One fired early, the other one should have been. These teams just keep wasting years.

    Can easily see Quinn finally getting canned next season in Atlanta when they start 2-4 or 3-5, like they probably will.

    If owner paid Leveon Bell his money they shouldn't be any issues with Steelers. Bell was the glue that held the team together.

    Antonio Brown had meltdowns on the sidelines last year when Bell was there.

    It has now come out that his new fight was between Roethlisberger and Brown.

    The altercation that led Antonio Brown's benching last week was with Ben Roethlisberger. Im told it was fairly ugly and the WR was totally in the wrong. He went AWOL essentially for the 3rd time this season dating back to training camp

    Was told this afternoon by a source during Steelers locker room clean out that Antonio Brown threw a ball near/at feet of Ben Roethlisberger and walked out of practice. Post-Gazette reporting Brown skipped Sat walkthrough and expected to play Sunday. He didn’t.

    He threw a ball near his feet. He was practicing a trick play and Ben couldn't move to catch Antonio's pass. And the media is blaming Antonio instead of Ben.

    Interesting story from Ryan Clark about Brown's actions 6 years ago.

    What a bitch.....

    A source close to the situation told ESPN's Adam Schefter that Brown was upset about being asked to run a hot read again during a walk-through and later told Roethlisberger he felt under appreciated.

    The NFL is a for profit business. Please don't be so naive to think winning is the thing that matters most.

    This isn't college, bud. He's had good players for a while now. The players determine success more than head coaches, imo.

    Brown had made a lot of amazing catches on awkward or poor throws that made Big Ben look good.

    Bad year for the Burgh! First Mac Miller, then the Steelers.

    Feel bad for my peeps out there, maybe the Pens can get it together.
