During Sunday afternoon football on November 9, the Pittsburgh Steelers lost against the New York Jets with a score of 13-20. The Jets had been on a eight game lossing streak up until yesterday's game... in fact, it was the team's first win all season. And according to diehard Steelers fans, it's all Justin Bieber's fault!

Just hours before the NFL game, the Biebs surprised the Steelers by showing up to a private bible study session in NYC. Several players even shared pics of the impromptu meet-and-greet on Twitter:

@CamHeyward: "Didn't know he was a steelers fan, but welcome to steelernation @justinbieber."

@dabody52: "Just met @justinbieber at Steelers Bible study tonight!"

 

@bgradkowski5: "Great to meet @justinbieber tonight at chapel! Thanks for coming!"

 

Several teammates (and fans) were excited that the "Believe" crooner was pro #SteelersNation. Until the devastating loss on Sunday, that is...

Amusingly enough, #BlameBieber and #BieberCurse quickly began trending on the popular social media site:

@SteelerChickPGH: "That's the last time Justin Bieber visits the Steelers! #BlameBieber."

@mikefreemanNFL: "With Bieber jumping on Steelers bandwagon, play all your Jets in fantasy tomorrow. Steelers guaranteed to lose now."

@TSpence26: "The Jets beating the Steelers may have something to do with #BieberCurse."

@FauxEmery: "Antonio Brown fumbles the punt. #BieberCurse."

@RobRossi_Trib: "#jets had 3 turnovers all season. Now have forced 3 in 1st half vs. #steelers. It isn't #BieberCurse. It's Steelers Football 2012-current."

@ColtsReporter: "#ColtsNation, make sure Justin Bieber stays away from your football team. Just kidding, (but seriously lol)."

@brockpompeani: "If this isn't a #BieberCurse I don't know what is."

@JWise39: "Justin Bieber should go to more Cowboys and Penguins games. #BieberCurse."

@Y_I_S_C: "It's just that kind of day, folks. #BieberCurse."

@steelchick34: "Omg they just announced that Beiber visited the steelers last might. #Biebercurse."

Ha.

Back in October, the 20-year-old singer also brought bad luck to the Cleveland Cavaliers. He paid a friendly visit the NBA team, and soon after they lost to the New York Knicks.

Oh, and fans can't forget about that drama involving the USA vs. Canada Olympic hockey game last winter...

Meanwhile, the pop megastar also remains (un)lucky in love - he's still yet to reconile with on-and-off again girlfriend, Selena Gomez.
