Antonio Brown throws temper tantrum after Ben Roethlisberger mistake

Antonio Brown got wide open over the middle of the field early in Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, and he could have walked into the end zone for a 64-yard touchdown. Ben Roethlisberger unfortunately did not see his favorite target, and let’s just say Brown didn’t handle it well.

Here’s a look at the play where Big Ben missed Brown:

After the play, Brown threw a cooler on the sideline and swatted offensive coordinator Todd Haley’s arm away when Haley tried to calm him down.

You can certainly understand why Brown was frustrated, but reacting like that is not a good look. Roethlisberger is going to be kicking himself when he sees the film of that play. Having his top receiving target act like a child in the middle of an important game doesn’t help anything.
