ESPN Radio 1250 in Pittsburgh just bantered on and on about how the Steelers players are seeing the replay of their December 16th loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars over and over. Pittsburgh Sports talk hosts Ken Laird and Jim Colony reported on air tonight that the game played just three weeks ago, a 29-22 Steelers loss has been running on a loop on all of the TV's in the Steelers practice and training facility since Monday.
(Paraphrasing...) QB, Ben Roethlisberger said jokingly that he would like to see something else on the TV like CNN, Sports Center or The Food Network.
(Paraphrasing...) Head Coach Mike Tomlin said this is technique that he learned from Detroit Lions Head Coach Rod Marinelli but then a defensive coach in Tampa Bay with Tomlin. Tomlin said that the constant reminder of what not to do and how bad they got beat has had some success in the past.
We shall see if this technique is good enough to replace a very banged up offensive line, defensive line and running game. Game time is this Saturday night Jan. 5th at 8pm EST at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.
