Tomlin: we sucked

As much as I love the idea of going undefeated, I know the reality is that it's pretty much impossible.

That absolutely should not be the goal in the players' minds. They should be focused nothing more right now than winning each game simply to stay ahead of KC. That bye will be critical and frankly, every extra game KC has to play is good for the Steelers. They are an offensive juggernaut and the Steelers have been losing key players on defense at a steady pace.

We're probably going to have to go undefeated to stay ahead of the Chiefs. I don't buy into we need to lose a game before the playoffs. If we lose, we lose but the goal should always be to win every game.
 
Sooner or later the WR dropped passes and fumbles are going to cost us a game.

The most guilty player is Johnson who dropped 3 passes ( One of which would have been a TD ) and fumbled out of bounds when we need the clock to run. You just can't have that in one score games,

The clock started after that play. He fumbled backwards out of bounds. Clock starts on the spot, Ben snapped the ball with 19 running seconds...

yeah Ben ****** up. I don't think he knew the clock was going to start when the ball was placed ready for play

He should have known it, I mean the ref told the entire stadium the clock starts on his call.
