Coach Mike Tomlin:
It was good to get back in the competitive feel and do it with a victory. There’s always some anxiety coming off the bye [week]. You’re worried about your level of execution and your physicality early. They answered those questions pretty quickly. I thought the guys came out ready to play. You got to tip your hat to Cleveland. I thought the field-position game was a legitimate factor in the game, especially early on. It kind of kept it extremely close. Their punter did a nice job; they did a nice job getting first downs on every possession. And they had us backed up.
We were looking at a full field there for a majority of the early portion of the game. But the guys didn’t blink and continued to work and made the necessary plays for us to have a victory. On the injury front, Brett Keisel appears to be the only one at this juncture that could be an issue moving forward. He’s got a hamstring injury............................................ .................
RE: Emmanuel Sanders play:
He’s ready to contribute. That’s why it’s kind of nip-and-tuck with him and Antonio Brown. Two very serviceable young guys that are competing week-in-and-week-out for the right to wear the helmet and help our team, I’ve got big-time respect for how both men are handling it and producing when given the opportunity, and really making decisions tough for myself. I appreciate that from a guy in my position....................
