The Pittsburgh Steelers under head coach Mike Tomlin love knockdown, drag-out fights. That’s exactly what Sunday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys was. And the Steelers typically win those games. They forced three turnovers, allowed only one red-zone touchdown, and won the penalty battle.
But it was the Cowboys who won the game, 20-17, on a last-minute touchdown from QB Dak Prescott to WR Jalen Tolbert. It was the quintessential Steelers game, and they couldn’t pull it out at the end.
“Another thing that’s very alarming is they lost, the Steelers did, on how they like to win games,” former Steelers front office executive Doug Whaley said on The Black & Gold Zone on WPXI after the loss.
