PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers are promising to be a changed team as they try to stop a four-game losing streak that is threatening to end their chances of repeating as Super Bowl champions even before the playoffs begin.

There's no other option, several players said Tuesday, if the 6-6 Steelers are to save a season that's slipping away as fast as their leads are disappearing in the fourth quarter.

Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger saw some players trudging wearily into the Steelers' practice complex on Tuesday and he couldn't help but say something.

His message: Get over it, and now.

The Steelers play at the 1-11 Cleveland Browns on Thursday.
