Sums up Tomlin, good guy, better waffler.......
They lost five of their last six games this season, three in a row to miss the playoffs in 2019 and four of their last six to miss the postseason in 2018. Throw in the 45-42 loss at home to the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2017, and the late-season crumbling has become a disturbing trend.
When asked about the collapses, coach Mike Tomlin said, “It is what it is. Our record is our record. Our performances are our performances. Don't run away from that.”
The Steelers have allowed 93 points in their past two playoff appearances, but do not blame defensive coordinator Keith Butler for the leaky defense.
As he has done for most of the season, if not longer, Tomlin called all the defensive signals against the Browns. In the past, Tomlin and Butler would often split the play-calling.
“We functioned the way we normally function tonight,” Tomlin said after the game.
