Mitch Trubisky (Steelers): “We have to have a killer mentality”

After spoiling the Bears’ excellent defense for years, the Steelers quarterback hopes he won’t have the same misfortune in Pittsburgh

Sunday, the Steelers were part of the teams that created the surprise by winning in Cincinnati. Carried by an incredible defense which caused 5 turnovers, Pittsburgh nevertheless needed overtime and the clumsiness of the opposing kicker to win.

In question, an inefficient attack, which will have scored only 10 points following the loss of opposing balls. In total, the Steelers will have needed their punter 8 times in this game. A situation that does not seem to delight Trubisky, as he explained at a press conference.

“When your defense is playing so well and it’s causing ball losses, you want to take care of the ball. But we must have a killer mentality, one that will allow us to take the teams out of the game, and not leave them in contact. When our defense gets turnovers, we have to convert them into points. It’s my state of mind. That’s what we were thinking when we got the ball back, we need to convert them into touchdowns and not just field goals. “

With only 2 of 7 completed passes, on attempts over 20 yards, Trubisky struggled to get the big plays to advance his team.

“I think we had a good amount of deep passes during this game. You just have to hit the receiver. I think if we get there early enough in the game, it will open up the short and medium range passes as well.”

He nevertheless managed to connect with Pat Freiermuth at the best of times to get the winning field goal.

“I’ve had these overtime situations before, and we were lucky to get the ball back. For our defense which made many important stops, and which gave us the opportunity to put Chris Boswell in position for the winning kick. It was exciting and really fun. “

It remains to hope for Pittsburgh that words will be followed by deeds, because the defense will not cause 5 loss of balls every week.
