UNDATED (AP) — Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin says more changes could be coming, after he benched some of his starters during Thursday’s 36-28 loss at Minnesota.
Prime areas of concern are the offensive and defensive lines. The offensive line allowed Ben Roethlisberger to be sacked four times, and the defense surrendered 242 yards rushing versus the Vikings.
