    Mike Tomlin offers perfect 3-word response to the benching of Broderick Jones

    The officials were busy in Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos. The Steelers pulled off the win 13-6 but make no mistake, it was some ugly football.

    Pittsburgh was penalized 10 times for 78 yards, with three of those going to offensive tackle Broderick Jones on a single drive. Even if we argue that the last holding calls was too soft to call, he was on the officials’ radar at that point.

    The penalties were enough that head coach Mike Tomlin felt it necessary to bench Jones in favor of rookie Troy Fautanu and Jones did not return. Tomlin was asked about the penalties and the situation and Tomlin gave the most perfect and direct answer he could give. “You got it,” Tomlin fired back to end the presser.

    It isn’t clear if Jones will be back in the lineup next week against the Los Angeles Chargers.

    Jones needs to go back to his natural left side position.
