McCarthy: 'This is a big step for us'

Bob Labriola reflects on the Pittsburgh Steelers earning a 26-19 overtime road victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The win moved Pittsburgh to a 4-2 record on the season, placing the team in a three-way tie atop the AFC North alongside Cleveland and Baltimore. Coach Mike McCarthy praised his squad for securing back-to-back victories and earning their first away win under his coaching staff.
Labriola highlights defensive adjustments made under coordinator Patrick Graham, who moved to the sideline as Pittsburgh applied increased pressure against rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels. Despite injuries to receivers Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson, rookie Germie Bernard caught 11 passes for 87 yards, including a game-winning six-yard touchdown in overtime, as the Steelers prepare for an upcoming international trip to Paris.
