Patrick Peterson Buying Into ‘Winning Edge Meetings’ With Mike Tomlin Following ‘Gritty’ Win Over Raiders

All offseason veteran cornerback Patrick Peterson talked about the excitement of playing for a head coach the caliber of Mike Tomlin.

On Sunday night coming off a “gritty” win over the Las Vegas Raiders on the road, Peterson doubled down on playing for Tomlin and his greatness while stating just how important one small meeting each week played in the win.

Appearing on the Sunday Night Football post-game show with Jack Collinsworth, Rodney Harrison and Hall of Fame head coach Tony Dungy, Peterson spoke glowingly of Tomlin, calling him a “different” coach. He said a weekly leadership meeting with older guys in an effort to find a winning edge paid off.
