PITTSBURGH (AP) - The Pittsburgh Steelers can’t seem to do it the easy way, can’t seem to stay out of trouble.

Ben Roethlisberger was summoned to Commissioner Roger Goodell’s office for his misbehavior. James Harrison, the NFL leader in fines, was ordered there last week for all of his dangerous hits.

There have been enough disruptions, enough fourth-quarter collapses to derail even the most experienced and accomplished of teams, yet the Steelers refuse to let it happen.

They’ve arrived at midseason with the same record (6-2) they’ve had during each of coach Mike Tomlin’s four seasons, and five of the last six seasons. They possess the confident air of a team that cares nothing about style points as long as they’re atop the standings and a Super Bowl run remains possible.
