PITTSBURGH -- Every week a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers support staff lines the hallway leading to the teams locker room with photos taken from the previous weeks game.This week was no different, even though the pickings were slim and included shots of punter Jordan Berry and backup linebacker Anthony Chickillo. Getting handed the franchises worst loss in 27 years -- a 31-point meltdown against Philadelphia -- has a way of limiting your options.Even 48 hours after a three-hour reality check that put the brakes on his teams promising start, coach Mike Tomlin was hardly in a mood to search for any sliver of a silver lining.We got our butts kicked, Tomlin said on Tuesday.A whipping that magnified cracks in the defensive front seven that Pittsburghs offense was able to gloss over through the seasons opening two weeks. The Steelers (2-1) barely laid a hand on Philadelphia quarterback Carson Wentz and put on an exhibition of poor tackling that turned modest gains into big ones .We do it hard, Tomlin said. We need to do it smarter than what we displayed on Sunday.Particularly with Kansas City (2-1) coming to Heinz Field this weekend. Eagles coach Doug Pederson is a protege of Chiefs coach Andy Reid and the series of screens and misdirection passes Philadelphia used so effectively are just Pedersons own riff on the West Coast offense Reids teams have been using for years.Making Kansas City quarterback Alex Smith uncomfortable would help, though the Steelers have not been able to create any sort of sustained pressure. They have just one sack through three games, dead last in the league, and that was a sack in name only when linebacker Arthur Moats touched down Andy Dalton on a scramble for no gain in Week 2.There is room for improvement all around, defensive end Cam Heyward said. Whether its pass rush, not tackling well, not rallying to the screens better, not winning third downs.Or avoiding major penalties, like the three 15-yard flags the Steelers incurred on defense against Philadelphia, miscues that led directly to Eagles scores.Be it a late hit, a roughing the passer or a facemask, you cant give up 15-yard penalties during the course of drive play, Tomlin said. It just makes getting off extremely difficult.Tomlin was hardly laying blame strictly at the feet of his defense. He pointed the finger at the coaching staff for a poor game plan poorly executed and an offense that was held to its lowest point total in five years. Help will arrive on Sunday when running back LeVeon Bell returns from a three-game suspension.Dont expect Tomlin to slowly work Bell back into the mix. Bell missed the first two games of 2015 due to a suspension and touched the ball 26 times in a Week 3 victory over the Rams.Well see how sharp he is physically once we get him out on the practice field and kind of go from there, Tomlin said. But, rest assured youre going to see LeVeon Bell, and probably a lot of him on Sunday.Whether a handful of starters will join Bell in the lineup remains uncertain. Guard Ramon Foster is dealing with an elbow injury. Ryan Shaziers balky right knee acted up on Sunday and rookie safety Sean Davis back is aching. While Foster and Shazier could conceivably play without practicing, Davis wont be afforded the same luxury. With safety Robert Golden battling a hamstring issue, Pittsburgh could be shorthanded in the secondary, placing even more onus on the defensive line to get to Smith.Whoever is out there will have to play better -- much better -- than what transpired in Philadelphia. Then again, the Steelers have proven resilient when on the wrong ends of blowouts. In 2012 they opened with a 28-point loss to Baltimore and went 12-4. In 2014, the Browns drummed them by 20-3 and Pittsburgh won 8 of 10 to capture the AFC North. Even in 1989 -- when the Steelers were outscored by a combined 92-10 in opening losses to Cincinnati and Cleveland -- they rallied to make the playoffs.We have a great group of guys in all three phases, linebacker Arthur Moats said. Were all going to correct our issues and were going to make sure that that gets off of the tape real quick.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Kahlil McKenzie Super Bowl Jersey . -- Cam Newton pranced into the end zone, placed his hands over his chest and did his familiar Superman pose.

It was the second consecutive win for the Pacers (2-5), who lost their first five preseason games.

Loughborough Lightning 168 for 6 (van Niekerk 91) beat Surrey Stars 134 (Devine 2-12, Langston 2-14) by 34 runsScorecard Team and individual competition records were broken as Loughborough Lightning sealed their place in the finals of the Kia Super League by beating Surrey Stars.South Africa international Dane van Niekerk hit 91 off just 64 balls, including 13 fours and three sixes, beating the previous competition record innings of 90 not out by Surreys Natalie Sciver, as Lightning ran up 168 for 6. That too was a record, the previous highest innings score in the competition being the 164 made by Lancashire Thunder, also at Loughborough Universitys Haslegrave ground.Ive been struggling with form, but I knew it was a really good track and I had to take my chance, said van Niekerk, who came into the match having scored just 19 runs in her previous three innings. Going into the finals its nice to have a few runs and for the team to have a bit of momentum.Surrey skipper Sciver chose to bowl after winning the toss, but may have already regretting her decision when Lightning openers Georgia Elwiss and Van Niekerk brought up the 50 in the seventh over.Van Niekerk looked in good touch from the start. Consecutive boundaries stroked through the off side off the pace bowling of Marizanne Kapp, along with a huge straight six clubbed the left-arm spin of Alex Hartley, were the pick of the 23-year-olds shots in a half-century made from 41 balls.Hartley, bowling with a nice loop, did pick up a wicket, Elwiss failing to clear long-off, but Van Niekerk appeared unstoppable. A reverrse paddle was followed by a reverse scoop for boundaries before Rene Farrell was deposited over midwicket for another six.ddddddddddddophie Devine edged a catch behind driving at a wide delivery, but just as the first century of the competition seemed Van Niekerks for the taking, she pulled Kapp hard to midwicket, where Sciver took a fine catch running in from the boundary.Inevitably, perhaps, van Niekerk then took a wicket in her first over of legspin, the third of the Surrey reply, courtesy of some sharp work behind the stumps by Amy Jones when Bryony Smith dragged her back foot. In her following over she had Cordelia Griffith caught and bowled, but the key wickets as far as Loughborough were concerned were those of Sciver and fellow England international Tammy Beaumont.Sciver had made just 12 when she top-edged Elwiss towards short third man, where Rebecca Grundy took the catch on the edge of the circle. Beaumont was beginning to threaten on 27 when she was run out by a direct hit - by van Niekerk, naturally. In the circumstances it came as no surprise when she added a fine boundary catch to her contribution.It was a good score but we were never really out of it on that track, so of course were disappointed, Sciver said. Its been a great competition, playing under pressure can only help develop our games. The crowds have been great and it shows how popular womens domestic cricket is becoming.
