Mike Tomlin Reveals What’s to Blame For Steelers’ Late Struggles Against Vikings

Week 4 for the Pittsburgh Steelers has ended with a 24-21 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. But it wasn’t such a close battle as the scoreboard looks. The Steelers carved out a 14-6 lead before the first half ended. Coming back, they followed it up with another touchdown in the third quarter, and a field goal in the fourth quarter to rake up the 24 points while the Vikings still trailed by 6 points. But that’s when the script almost flipped.

The Vikings made a resurgence, clawing out two touchdowns against the Steelers’ defense and raising the stakes to 21 points. Post-game, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin left no doubt why that happened.
