Steelers closing ranks as losing streak hits 4
PITTSBURGH — Ramon Foster knows the drill, even if it’s one the Pittsburgh Steelers have been largely able to avoid most of the last four-plus decades.
When a team that began September with realistic Super Bowl expectations finds itself listing as Thanksgiving nears like the Steelers (4-5) are following a late defensive meltdown cost them against Dallas on Sunday, drama — either real or imagined — is sure to follow.
It’s why Foster found himself at his locker on Monday answering questions about everything from the team’s confidence in coach Mike Tomlin to quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s grousing about accountability.
