NFL Week 7: Steelers highlight social media winners and losers
Winners: The Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers were winners all over the field Sunday.
Not only did Pittsburgh top the Cincinnati Bengals to take over first place in the AFC East, Mike Tomlin’s squad provided us with plenty of memes for the ages.
JuJu Smith-Schuster and Le’Veon Bell continued to dominate the touchdown celebration game with their game of hide-and-seek following the former’s 31-yard touchdown reception.
The quality of JuJu's acting when he spots 26 behind the post takes this from an A- to an A. https://t.co/jvlOV71ZCD

Tomlin’s wink after his team pulled off a fake punt already up by 12 was magical.

Le'Veon Bell tossed Dre Kirkpatrick like an outlet pass.

Losers: Anyone who suffered through the Tennessee Titans – Cleveland Browns game
Marcus Mariota and the Titans barely eked out a 12-9 overtime win over the hapless Browns, but the real loser was anyone who had to subject their eyes to that terrible display of football that featured a grand total of ZERO offensive touchdowns.
funniest show on CBS: Browns-titans

Browns and Titans headed to overtime knotted up at 9-9 oh yeah baby that's what I'm talking about. Football.

Winner: Fog
Fog dominated the Super Bowl LI rematch between the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots.

Fog is getting bad at Gillette. Look at Gronk here. He was open. #Patriots pic.twitter.com/3clxwqDMuL

This fog is like playing an entire game in Browns Quarterback mode.

Unfortunately for the Falcons, just because no one could actually see the game, doesn’t mean it didn’t count.

Nope. Just nope.
Winner: Pettiness
Are these 28-3 jokes kind of getting stale? Yes. Do the Atlanta Falcons deserve to be mocked for all eternity for blowing a 25-point lead in the Super Bowl? Also yes.
Wow, this fog is something else. pic.twitter.com/6gtJzgObmY

Spooky fog rolls in, then Falcons get haunted by Super Bowl ghost of James White

If you want the jokes to end, Atlanta, there’s an easy solution: win.
