In a 30-23 win over the Seattle Seahawks, the Pittsburgh Steelers got the ball back with a seven-point lead just after the two-minute warning. The Seahawks did a nice job of moving the ball throughout the game, evidenced by their 369 yards of total offense. With their offense on the field, the Steelers had an opportunity to close out the game without giving the Seahawks any more chances.
In a clip of Mic’d Up by NFL Films, you can see the decision-making process by Tomlin and his coaching staff as they tried to close out the game.
“Hey Sully, I don’t wanna get conservative, man,” Tomlin said to his interim play caller, QB coach Mike Sullivan, in a clip of the segment posted by NFL Films on X.
