On Tuesday, HC Mike Tomlin spoke to the media in his weekly press conference where he talked about the events of Sunday’s loss to the New York Jets at home and previewed the team’s upcoming Week 5 matchup on the road against the Buffalo Bills.

When asked if there I one particular area where the defense has been letting the team down in terms of getting off the field and getting the ball back to the offense over the last few weeks, Tomlin was quick to point to the most vital moments of the game where the defense needs to step up their play to escape the game with victory rather than falling in defeat.
