PITTSBURGH (AP) -Every fourth quarter is an adventure for the Pittsburgh Steelers, every game is a struggle.
They’re losing games that good teams usually win, and barely winning games that good teams normally dominate. They were forced into overtime to beat the winless Tennessee Titans. They labored to close out the Detroit Lions, winners of one of 21 games over the past two seasons.
Five games into an uneven season, the Steelers are 3-2, yet they haven’t resembled the team that won the Super Bowl last season – and they know it.
A team that prided itself on winning games late last season has been outscored 55-13 in the fourth quarter. Even the Lions were in position to tie them Sunday before losing 28-20 in a game Detroit trailed by 15 points.
