Overview
- Pittsburgh fell to 6-6 after a 26-7 home loss to Buffalo, drawing loud “Fire Tomlin” chants at Acrisure Stadium.
- Heyward told Heavy he respects criticism but urged teammates to play better and fix run fits, saying they must “stop the run a whole lot better.”
- The defense produced zero sacks against Josh Allen, who had 123 yards and a touchdown, while the Steelers have allowed about 118 rushing yards per game at 4.3 per carry this season.
- Ben Roethlisberger floated a fresh start for Tomlin and James Harrison questioned his coaching on their podcasts, with Ryan Clark voicing similar concerns in separate comments.
- Tomlin is under contract through 2027 after a 2024 extension, and multiple reports indicate an in-season firing is unlikely, putting the focus on upcoming results starting with Sunday’s Ravens game for first place.
