Steelers' Chris Boswell earns vote of confidence after late field goal

PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has his kicker's back, and it seems that will continue for the rest of the season.

After practicing to keep his job earlier in the week because of struggles all year, Chris Boswell helped seal Sunday's 17-10 win over the New England Patriots with a 48-yarder in the final minutes. He missed a 32-yarder in the third quarter.

"He's our kicker from start to finish and I liked the way he came back and banged that next opportunity and that is what this thing (football) is about," Tomlin said.
