The Pittsburgh Steelers are 4-2, but they could easily be 6-0—at least. That’s the feeling in the locker room. They dropped two games in a row, first to an Indianapolis Colts team playing with a backup quarterback, Joe Flacco. A week later, they fell to the Dallas Cowboys, the defense allowing a back-breaking 4th-and-goal touchdown with 26 seconds left.
The Steelers’ defense looked rough on that final drive in Dallas, but they had their chances. Elandon Roberts forced a fumble at the goal line, but the Cowboys recovered. One play literally decided the game, and they botched a comeback attempt in Indianapolis, as well.
