Mike Tomlin urges Steelers players to focus on the present as playoff drought continues
Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin addressed the team's seven-year playoff-win drought, stating he does not want his players to feel burdened by past failures. He emphasized that many current players are not responsible for this history. Despite Tomlin's message, key players like T.J. Watt and Cameron Heyward have never experienced a playoff victory. The team is entering the playoffs after a four-game losing streak, facing a tough matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers' current roster includes several players and staff who have not enjoyed playoff success. As they prepare for the postseason, the pressure to break the drought remains significant.
