With their win against the Chiefs today, the Steelers clinched a playoff spot.

Here are a couple of takeaways:

• Taunting penalties are ridiculous, just like the NHL embellishment rules.  God forbid someone get their feelings hurt playing football.
• Tomlin will reap heaps of praise for taking the Steelers to the playoffs against one of the easiest schedules in recent memory.
• Ben Roethlisberger is held to a different standard when it comes to hits on the QB. #AllQuarterbacksMatter

Malkin to Ben, “They like going after my knees too. Also, I am score. You are too. ”
