Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was not shy in expressing his frustrations with officiating after the team’s 27-13 loss to the Eagles in Week 15. That didn’t seem to change less than 24 hours later, either.

On Monday, Tomlin revealed he was still not satisfied with the explanations he received from the refs on Sunday.

“I don’t want to get into specifics of what was said to me in game or how that was administered,” Tomlin said. “There’s some controversy around it. I acknowledge that.”

The Steelers were called for several questionable penalties in Philadelphia. Most notably, wide receiver Calvin Austin III and tight end Darnell Washington were penalized during a skirmish in the first quarter.

However, no Eagles were flagged, despite several videos surfacing of cornerback Darius Slay Jr. throwing a punch at Washington.
