Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin won't let another Spygate scandal befall his team.
The team built a tarp wall held up by four pillars to block the view from an adjacent office building on Pittsburgh's south side.

When asked about his request for privacy, Tomlin playfully cited his fear of robots.
"I'll leave that somewhat mystical for you guys to hypothesize about the origins of that and its use ... I know how it is, man," Tomlin told reporters Thursday, according to ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler. "This is interesting times, drones and so forth. We do what we've got to do to prepare and get ready to play to have a level and fair competitive playing field."
One of the buildings next to the facility includes a branch of the FBI, which may leave the head coach wondering who exactly is watching his team's practices.
"I wonder about a lot of things," Tomlin said. "Some of the questions I get in here, I wonder about."
