On virtually every play, a lineman could be called for holding. On virtually every play, a defender could be called for PI or holding. Referees are not going to throw a flag on every single play.
Steelers players are obviously indoctrinated to carry a play beyond the whistle because they have and continue to do it all the time. Referees are not going to throw a flag every single time they do it, but a typical NFL player is going to get tired of the constant bullshit they pull and retaliate after it happens, catching a flag of their own.
Steelers fans see that as "hard-nosed 'smart' football". People with some intelligence see that as bush league bullshit.
Guess which one you are?
Do players leave the bench after virtually every play to restrain a teammate?

A teammate that the officials are holding back but NOT calling a penalty on?
Oh...right. He was just upset with the "dirty Steelers".

Face it, the Bengals didn't have the mental ability to stay in the game.
