JuJu Smith-Schuster continues to ignore all logic when it comes to dancing on opposing teams’ logos on the road.
The Pittsburgh Steelers wideout was going to recreate the Terrell Owens touchdown celebration in Dallas against the Cowboys but was stopped. He danced on the Buffalo Bills logo and the Steelers lost a week ago, with multiple players (including QB Josh Allen) using it as motivation.
It seems unnecessary to fire up an opponent in that way … but Smith-Schuster did it again anyway before Monday’s shocking loss to Cincinnati, and of course, the Bengals took note.
Here’s the video of the pregame dance before Monday Night Football:

The Bengals’ Vonn Bell addressed the logo dancing a couple of days before the contest, noting, “We just gotta go out there, between the lines, go out there and hit him and let him know where he stands.”

And Bell did just that, forcing Smith-Schuster to fumble in the first quarter with a huge hit.

Again: this isn’t a good idea! I understand Smith-Schuster wanting to be himself, but anything that fires up the opposing defense may not be the best thing. Bell was all smiles when asked about it:

Bell got revenge with that forced fumble and the Bengals’ win multiplied it by two.
