Unfortunately, luck was not in favor of the Steelers insider. In the fourth quarter of the game, it looked like Mike Tomlin's team would extend their winning streak to four games. Aaron Rodgers found TE Pat Freiermuth with a 68-yard TD pass to potentially help them secure the victory by one point.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin had questioned the Browns' decision to trade Joe Flacco to the Bengals

Before their Week 7 game against the Bengals, Tomlin expressed his thoughts on the Browns' decision to trade away Flacco.

He questioned the decision taken by GM Andrew Berry after naming Flacco as the QB1 of the team at the start of the season.

"You know, to be honest, it was shockings to me," Tomlin said on Monday. "Andrew Berry must be a lot smarter than me or us, because it doesn't make sense to me trade a quarterback that you think enough of to make your opening-day starter to a division opponent that's hurting in that area. But that's just my personal feelings."

After the game, Skip Bayless tweeted how the Steelers coach spoke his concerns about facing Joe Flacco in Week 7 into existence after their disappointing 33-31 loss.

"Mike Tomlin, complaining about the Browns trading Flacco to a division rival, spoke this into existence."

Tomlin and his team are next scheduled to face the Green Bay Packers on Oct. 26. The game will be broadcast on NBC, Peacock, and NFL+ at 8:20 pm ET.
