Thats why (the Cowboys) are one of the best in the business and were not right now.When asked how the team got to that point, Roethlisberger said, I dont know. Is it players? Is it coaches? I dont know, but we need to get there quick.Roethlisberger completed 37-of-46 passes for 408 yards and three touchdowns, but the numbers werent enough to extend his home winning streak to eight games.This isnt the first time this season Roethlisberger has included Steelers coaching in his assessments of the team. In October, Roethlisberger wondered aloud whether the Steelers physical practices contributed to aa multitude of player injuries over the last two years.ddddddddddddWhen youre doing it over and over and the guys shoulders are getting sore and knees start getting sore and hips and hamstrings and quads and things, and then they reoccur, youve got to maybe take a look at what youre doing, Roethlisberger said. We pride ourselves as the Pittsburgh Steelers being a physical football team, so its a fine line you have to walk.Coach Mike Tomlin responded that he welcomes all ideas about best practices and said Roethlisberger has been around here long enough to have an opinion and also express it.Roethlisberger also cautioned against the offensive game plans getting too creative after a Week 4 win over the?Kansas City Chiefs.Most Steelers players agree they need to clean up their play after Elliott and Dak Prescott combined for five touchdowns. Tomlin said the Steelers didnt have enough discipline and detail in our play to pull off the win.We obviously are making costly mistakes, and they hurt us, running back LeVeon Bell said. We need some more detail, and were going to keep falling short until we get that. ' ' '
