Steelers HC Mike Tomlin hopes winning streak is a “launching pad” for season

You play who is on your schedule and you win the games you are supposed to win. This has been the attitude of the Pittsburgh Steelers since coming back from the bye week and after Sunday’s win over the Atlanta Falcons, the team is 3-1 since the bye and head coach Mike Tomlin likes what he sees.

After the game, Tomlin discussed what this win could mean for the team as the season winds down.

“Two road victories in a row,” Tomlin said. “Was much needed trying to find that rhythm and do what good teams do, which is stack winning performance on top of winning performance. Hopefully it’s a launching pad for us as we move forward.”

Pittsburgh currently sits at 5-7 and is on the outside looking in as far as the AFC playoff picture. But if we have seen anything from this team it is the ability to string some wins together late in the season. Will this two-game win streak be the momentum boost this team needs to win out? This week will be a great test with the Baltimore Ravens coming to town.
