Steelers' JuJu Smith-Schuster takes blame for loss vs. Saints

Wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster continued to take the blame Monday for a costly loss by the Pittsburgh Steelers, saying on Twitter that he "let everyone down" after a fourth-quarter fumble.

After the New Orleans Saints scored the go-ahead touchdown for a 31-28 lead with 1:25 remaining, the Steelers were driving into field goal range when Smith-Schuster fumbled at the New Orleans 34.

"It's tough to go out like that," Smith-Schuster said after the game. "I got tackled, I fumbled, game over. I was just trying to get down. They made a good play.
