Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward and Buffalo Bills<\/a> quarterback Josh Allen won\u2019t be exchanging Christmas cards this year. <\/p>\n

During the Bills\u2019 26-7 win over the Steelers, Heyward was shown getting into Josh Allen\u2019s face multiple times in-game, mouthing some unkind words. Steelers media members asked Heyward about the encounter following the loss.<\/p>\n

Heyward would accuse Allen of an intentional cheap shot. Per Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review<\/a>, Heyward said that Allen kneed him in the stomach on purpose. This led to Heyward getting into with Allen and ultimately led to an unsportsmanlike penalty on the defensive tackle.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt pissed me off,\u201d Heyward would say post-game. <\/p>\n

Of course, that is just one side of the story. Allen was not asked about his interactions with Heyward post-game, but he could be asked later this week.<\/p>\n

Heyward\u2019s interaction was just one of many chippy interactions between the Steelers\u2019 defense and the Bills\u2019 offense on Sunday afternoon. Pittsburgh did plenty of talking and pushing and shoving post-play, but they were ultimately bullied by the Bills on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Buffalo\u2019s offense, with two backups at tackle, was able to rush for 249 yards in the win while holding the ball for 42 minutes. It was clear that Pittsburgh had no answers for the Bills\u2019 physical brand of football at Acrisure Stadium. At the end of the game, Buffalo finished with a new record for rushing yards by an away team at Acrisure Stadium. <\/p>\n

Buffalo moved to 8-4 following the win, helping them maintain their status as one of the AFC\u2019s Wild Card teams. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen won\u2019t be exchanging Christmas cards this…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48656,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[8177,73,75,74],"class_list":["post-48655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-american-football","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48655\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
