It seems like Justin Bieber is taking the blame for just about everything these days.
That sentiment rang true again on Sunday after the red-hot Pittsburgh Steelers put together a pitiful performance against the New York Jets, a team that carried a 1-8 record coming into the game. Bieber apparently met with some of the Steelers players during bible study the night before the game, even taking pictures with a few of them.
So when the Steelers fell behind 0-17 to the Jets in the first quarter, it didn’t take long for the Pittsburgh faithful to find a scapegoat for their favorite team’s struggles. Hence, #BlameBieber was born.

I think we missed a key #BlameBieber angle. He interrupted the #Steelers bible study! They couldn’t get properly holy! Is nothing sacred?
