Part 4/10:
As the game progressed, the Steelers faced a critical decision in the second quarter—a fourth down situation just shy of a first down. The offensive team appeared to be in a manageable position at their own 30-yard line, yet paradoxically, the decision was made to punt rather than go for it. This moment became emblematic of head coach Mike Tomlin's conservative approach, a decision that many criticized as cowardly and indicative of a larger issue within the team's strategy.
