Exactly, the Steelers could have put 26 more seconds on the clock. Russell Wilson took a bad sack, and the Steelers sank a 49-yard field goal. Pittsburgh went into the half with the score 17-13 instead of potentially tying it up, and this clock management gaffe is part of why the Steelers fell short at the end of the game.

If Mike Tomlin is being considered a favorite to win Coach of the Year in 2024, his potential success in leading the Pittsburgh Steelers out of their '10-day stretch of doom' should all but guarantee his selection.
