New York Giants pass-rusher Brian Burns was not happy with his team following Monday's 26-18 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

"The team needs to grow up," he said, per Darryl Slater of NJ.com.

He wasn't the only one who was frustrated, as defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence said, "I think we have to show more passion as a team—or as leaders."

New York is now 2-6 following the latest loss and could find itself playing out the string on a lost season in the near future if things don't quickly turn around after Monday's showing.
