Head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin, was not too happy after his teams' blowout loss to the Cincinnati Bengals 41-10.
Tomlin said this at the press conference,
“All right man not a lot to say. tip our caps to those guys. they played today and won and did the things required in a big game like this, and we didn't.”
This is a loss that the Steelers really were trying to avoid as they now fall into last place of the AFC North. If they won this game, they would have moved into second place and would have only been a game-and-a-half behind the Baltimore Ravens. Pittsburgh had no answer for the Bengals as the Bengals completely outplayed them in every facet. Pittsburgh's defense has been embarrassing the past two weeks as they've allowed 41 points in both games.
There's still a chance that Pittsburgh can make the playoffs but they do have a tough schedule coming up including the Baltimore Ravens, Minnesota Vikings, Tennessee Titans, and the Kansas City Chiefs. It doesn't look like they're going to be able to get into the playoffs with this type of schedule.
It has been a disappointing season for the Steelers and it looks like the future of the team is in jeopardy. Ben Roethlisberger has not been great and the Steelers don't have many options behind him. It's going to be an interesting next few seasons for the Steelers.
