Mike Tomlin reveals worst call against Steelers during his time as head coach

During an appearance on the Late Night with Seth Meyers show, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin shared his recollection of the most regrettable referee call he experienced while leading his team. "I go to the holding call for a safety in the Super Bowl," Tomlin recalled. Despite the Steelers ultimately winning Super Bowl XLIII, the contentious call late in the game regarding center Justin Hartwig in the end zone, which led to a safety, continues to weigh heavily on Tomlin.

"He tried to decide the outcome of the game," Tomlin quipped with a smile. "That was, I don't know, 17, 18 years ago. When I still see that official, I'm not going to mention him by name. We talk about it a little bit."
