The Pittsburgh Steelers were eliminated from the playoffs on Saturday night in a loss to the Baltimore Ravens, 28-14.

The Steelers came alive in the third quarter with two Russell Wilson touchdown passes to make the game interesting as Ravens running back Derrick Henry ran all over Pittsburgh’s defense. Outside of those two touchdowns, the Steelers couldn’t generate any offense.

Baltimore outgained Pittsburgh 464 yards to 280, with each team having nine drives in the game.

George Pickens, the Steelers wide receiver who has been very outspoken about his team’s performance in recent weeks, took another jab at the offense.

“Yeah, I’ve definitely seen signs of growth,” Pickens said when asked about the offense via Pro Football Talk. “From previous – first year I’ve been here, just a lot more growth, for sure.”

But did that make him optimistic about the future?

MIKE VRABEL IN NEGOTIATIONS TO BE NEXT PATRIOTS COACH: REPORT

“Um, no,” he said.

He did not elaborate on the comments. He led the team with five catches for 87 yards and caught one of Wilson’s touchdown passes.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin placed the blame squarely on his shoulders. The loss made it six straight in the postseason.

“I’m just evaluating what happened tonight,” Tomlin said. “As I told you earlier this week, those are my bags, not this collective’s bags. So my energy is on that group in there and what they were willing to give and the journey that we’ve been on this year and that got a disappointing finish tonight.”
