Of course, the jaw-dropping finish was made possible by the NFL refs. It’s as if they listened to Puka Nacua’s complaints.

“Steelers get a stop to win the game. Refs 3-5 business days later,” another wrote with a meme:

“STEELERS WIN VS THE LIONS AND THE REFS,” wrote another.

“Puka was right about the refs. NFL is clearly rigged,” a fan added.

“This is so clearly rigged by the refs for the lions to win this… unbelievable,” a user commented.
