Since when is it a good idea to rely on a poor tackling no pressure defense in a close game with division winning stakes on the line?
They did it with the 4th and 1 punt and they did it again when they scored with 1:18 left on the clock with a mere 1 point lead.
When it is a 14-14 tie and we just got stuffed on 3rd and 1.
Better to make the Steelers drive 90 yards than 60.
And anyone who thinks we should have tried NOT TO SCORE a td at the end of the game when we had scored ZERO POINTS in the entire second half is crazy.
