The Boston Celtics have the most NBA titles with 17, and the Pittsburgh Steelers have won six Super Bowls, most in the NFL.

PITTSBURGH (AP) -The more coach Mike Tomlin keeps talking about it, the more agitated his players get. Exactly the response Tomlin wants from his Pittsburgh Steelers.

Now they're missing his replacement, Travis Kirschke, who has a torn left calf muscle that could sideline him another couple of weeks. He was injured during a 27-17 victory over Minnesota on Oct. 25.
