Steelers Morning Rush: Does Mike Tomlin lose to bad teams too frequently?
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s whether Mike Tomlin too frequently allows his teams to play down to their level of competition.

But remember last year, when the Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots, two struggling three-win teams, came into Acrisure Stadium and earned victories?
Elandon Roberts said on Wednesday that the team is focused on avoiding that outcome this time around. But in general, has that happened too frequently under Tomlin?
