Sunday, there was little positive to take away from a 30-6 loss. It was a black cloud of negativity. Mistakes on offense and defense crushed the Pittsburgh Steelers in one of their worst losses of the Mike Tomlin era, falling in miserable fashion to the Houston Texans.
Speaking to reporters after the game, Tomlin said negative plays continued to stack up against the Steelers, particularly on offense.
“We didn’t minimize enough negativity,” he told reporters postgame via the team’s website. “We didn’t stay on schedule enough. So drives get stalled or you settle for field goals and so was a perfect storm for us offensively and defensively from that perspective.
