I was at the game, and couldn't tell from my upper deck bleacher seat vantage point what set Hall off to the point that he would be so abusive toward the refs that he got himself ejected from the game. Just wondering...

Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus. -
No clue, it looks as innocuous as can be, even in replays, but he calmly removes his helmet to talk (which is a no-no) and then he just lashes out and needs to be restrained.
Here's the video from the NFL

according to an article I read in yahoo sports, DeAngelo Hall complained that Emmanuel Sanders had cut blocked him earlier and the referees hadn't called it.
I think Hall's reaction was out of frustration and because he has always had a predisposition to be reactionary and lose his temper.Comment

Sanders had a "potty mouth" and hurt his feelings"My team, may they always be right, but right or wrong...MY TEAM!"Comment

What I'm hearing here in the DC area is Shanahan and Hall are saying Sanders had Hall in a full nelson and took him down on the play. I certainly didn't see it that way. Then Hall says when he went to the official to ask him why he didn't throw a flag on Sanders the Ref started giving him a rash of crap. That's when Hall went berserk. They are now searching for camera views which would show what the official said.
I'm sure 'The Daniel' has already hired the best lip readers that money can buy who will tell us what the ref said.
As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.
but Go Steelers!!!

they're talking about it on ESPN right now and they said Hall is claiming Sanders grabbed his face mask and Hall asked the referee why there was no penalty on the play and then both of them started yelling at each other.What I'm hearing here in the DC area is Shanahan and Hall are saying Sanders had Hall in a full nelson and took him down on the play.

I looked it over a couple of times and to me it seems like here was no issues between Sanders and Hall after the play or nothing more than just pushing away from each other as many players do. All a big misunderstanding and tempers got the best of one player and possibly an official. Best thing to do is just forget about it after having a Ward Clever type talk with both of them. It's a heated game and these things happen.Comment

DeAngelo Hall doesn't seem to get it.
The Washington Redskins cornerback was ejected late in Sunday's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers when he went off on head linesman Dana McKenzie over an illegal block by wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders.

The wise move would be to accept blame, apologize, hope you're hit with an NFL fine as opposed to a suspension and pray Redskins coach Mike Shanahan doesn't decide you're more trouble than you're worth.
Instead, Hall went on a D.C. radio station Tuesday to proclaim McKenzie "was equally at fault" for the incident.
"From that particular camera angle, you can't see what that ref's saying to me," Hall told WJFK-FM, via The Washington Post. "So it looks like I'm just out there giving him a piece of my mind, and he's smiling and walks away. And that's not the case at all. He's dishing it out just as much as I'm dishing it out."
Hall -- now in his ninth NFL season -- said he's seeking a meeting with Commissioner Roger Goodell to tell his side of the story. He suggested the NFL Players Association also is involved, according to The Post, and an NFL spokesman wouldn't comment to the newspaper about Hall's claims.
"It's not a system in place where ... they're the good cops and we're the criminals," he said. "It has to be an even playing field, a level playing field. ... If they want us to go out there and respect them, they have to do the same thing.
"Nobody is going out there trying to bully the referees, and likewise, they shouldn't be out there trying to bully us."
Hall clearly is upset with how he has been portrayed, but he shouldn't let pride get in the way of common sense

DeAngelo Hall will be fined, not suspended, for incident with ref
Posted by Michael David Smith on November 1, 2012
Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall won’t be suspended after he was ejected from Sunday’s game against the Steelers for screaming at an official.
The NFL has decided instead to fine Hall for his actions, the Washington Post reports. There’s no word yet on the amount of the fine, but Hall is also expected to be warned that further misconduct toward officials would result in a suspension.
Hall became enraged when Steelers receiver Emmanuel Sanders was not flagged for a hit that Hall viewed as a cheap shot. Hall stood in front of head linesman Dana McKenzie and appeared to be screaming profanity at him, while sticking his finger in McKenzie’s face. McKenzie and other officials told Hall to leave, but he initially refused and had to be pulled away.
Hall said this week that McKenzie was yelling at him, too, and that McKenzie was equally to blame. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said he didn’t like the way Hall conducted himself during the incident, while Hall said he wanted to talk to Goodell about it. There’s no word yet on whether Goodell and Hall have spoken.
