While Steelers, who defeated the Ravens 18-16, qualified for AFC North, the offense made the win extremely hard because it came up with just six field goals without a touchdown. Chris Boswell kicked all the six field goals, while the defense limited Ravens to 16 points and got three turnovers for the Steelers. The outcome raises several issues about winning and if they can continue with such games. Head coach Mike Tomlin had some inspiring words for his wide receiver corps entering the game.
Fans praised Mike Tomlin inspiring words for his team before the game
Head coach Mike Tomlin provided inspirational words to his wide receiver corps before the Pittsburgh Steelers' 18-16 win over the Baltimore Ravens. "Hey, this is the group," said Tomlin, as revealed in an NFL Films 'Mic'd Up' video. "Look at me, this is the group. When the team says, 'Let's get 'em', they're talking about this group. Make the plays, man. The plays ain't gonna make themselves. I'm looking at the playmakers."
"This is the group. Why do you think I go out with you?" He said as they made their way to the field. "That's the only reason why I played wideout, I had to be in that group. Man, I shoulda played safety but I just wanted to be in that group.”
Fans appreciated Tomlin's clip featuring his pass catchers, with some of the best reactions from Twitter being shared. "Best coach of ALL time and it’s not even close", one user wrote. "Coach of the year!", another wrote. "Great coach. Such a Pittsburgh guy. His players LOVE him. Stillers are for real this year", a third user wrote. "Coach Tomlin’s energy is unmatched! A true leader who knows how to bring out the best in his players", a fourth user wrote. "One among of the best coaches in NFL hisory", another wrote.
