The Pittsburgh Steelers were able to escape Week 1 with a 34-32 win over the New York Jets, but it took a career-long 60-yard Chris Boswell field goal late. On the play before Boswell’s field goal, QB Aaron Rodgers threw a well-placed ball to WR Calvin Austin III that would’ve been good for a first down, but with a defender draped on him, Austin couldn’t make the play. After the incompletion, Austin was visibly frustrated looking for a flag, but it never came. After the game, Rodgers said he thought the Steelers got “hosed” by the no-call.
“We got hosed on a call there that would’ve been able to run the clock out probably, but [Boswell] bailed us out with an amazing kick,” Rodgers said in a press conference after the game via the team’s YouTube channel.
