It’s really not such a big deal to lose a preseason game. It doesn’t count against your record, after all. But while the result itself might not matter, the manner in which you gain that result does. On Saturday, Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin was still stewing about the manner in which his team lost to the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night.
Of particular frustration is the fact that his team struggled on ‘possession downs’ as he calls them, the third- and fourth-down plays that determine whether or not a drive is going to continue.
