“It’s litty,” alright.
Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster litty a fire in the Buffalo Bills that Pittsburgh couldn’t put out on Sunday night.
Nothing like an opponent dancing on the team logo to add fuel to your fire. This flame was ignited in the Buffalo Bills via their leader Josh Allen. In the tunnel huddle, he told his team, “The recipe is simple, guys. Let them do all the (expletive) talking and all the dancing, and we do the work.”

Sure, it’s just a logo. But we’ve seen it happen before, and the outcome is never good. James Conner stopped Smith-Schuster from recreating the iconic Terrell Owens celebration on the Dallas Cowboys star in Week 9. You could bet JuJu would’ve gone ahead with his plan if Conner’s didn’t have something to say about it.
From the perspective of the Bills, JuJu’s dance on their logo is the equivalent of disrespecting the Terrible Towel. Buffalo used JuJu’s antics as motivation (not that they needed it) and handed Pittsburgh its second loss of the season.
Though a veteran of the NFL, JuJu is a 24-year-old kid. TikTok is what 24-year-olds do. But come game day, he’s better off leaving his phone at home.
Did his antics cost Pittsburgh the game? Certainly not. But it didn’t help the situation either.
