Mike Tomlin in awe of the power of Steeler Nation

It has become commonplace to see Steeler Nation just take over opposing stadiums when the Pittsburgh Steelers are on the road. This was definitely the case on Sunday as Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders got turned into Acrisure Stadium West.

Before the game, head coach Mike Tomlin came out and was wowed by the sheer masses of Steelers fans in the seats. he gave them a hat tip after the 32-13 win as well. Then he led off his post-game press conference with another acknowledgment of how appreciative he and the team are to see so many Steelers fans in the stadium.

Now the Steelers get to come home for two straight weeks as they head to the bye week. Steeler Nation can pack the stadium against the New York Jets and New York Giants over the next two weeks as the Steelers hope to head into their week off at 6-2 and with a fighting chance at an AFC North title.
