Mike Tomlin on Refs in Steelers' Loss vs. Chargers: 'Gonna Keep My Mouth Shut'

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin would have every right to complain about egregious officiating during his team's 33-30 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, but he opted not to do so in his postgame press conference.

"It's fruitless and it doesn't change the outcome of the game," Tomlin said, per Curt Popejoy of USA Today's Steelers Wire. "I'm gonna keep my mouth shut. I've sent enough money to New York."

Popejoy noted Tomlin was fined $25,000 when he questioned the officiating following his team's 41-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 5.
