PITTSBURGH -- Once teetering between funereal silence and bubbling angst after blowout losses to the Philadelphia Eagles and Buffalo Bills, the Pittsburgh Steelers were raucous in the visitors locker room at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The anthem of the past few seasons -- "Take Over Your Trap" by Bankroll Fresh -- blared from the portable speakers as cameras poured into the locker room. The music was quickly turned off to accommodate interviews, but the buzz remained after the Steelers' 19-16 win against the Atlanta Falcons.
After winning back-to-back games for the first time this season, the Steelers have clawed back from the brink of irrelevance and into the playoff conversation entering crucial December games.
