Tomlin: Field Positioning Issues ‘Significant’ Factor In Loss To Ravens
Entering Sunday’s AFC North rivalry matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, everyone within the facility for the Pittsburgh Steelers knew how important the field position game would be in what was likely to be a low-scoring affair.
Turns out, that’s exactly what it was as the Ravens emerged victorious, 16-14.
While the Ravens were able to run the football at will down the stretch against a soft Steelers front, and a major reason the Steelers lost the game was due to two costly interceptions in scoring position by backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky, who was in the game for an injured Kenny Pickett, the inability to win the field position battle was significant for Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin.
