Jeff Saturday admitted that it was a mistake not to call a timeout late on Monday
That is in contrast to what Saturday said after the game when he mentioned he thought the team had enough time to get organized.. “We still had timeouts. I wasn’t too concerned. When [Ryan] was going down, I couldn’t tell where they were gonna start him from going down, right? If he was gonna get the first down. And then we got there, I expected us to get on the ball and have another play, a little bit quicker than that. But again, this wasn’t a press for time. We just didn’t make enough plays.
Ultimately, Ryan couldn’t convert a fourth-and-2, which led to a turnover-on-downs and paving the way for the Steelers to run out the clock. For Saturday, that was one of his first experiences managing a clock late in a game since taking over as interim head coach last month.
