First Time Game Against The Steelers Fact

[GodFather]

Since the year 2000 we have only beaten the Steelers five times in the game opener against them that season. Now that is probably no surprise to any of us hard-core fans but what I did find very interesting was out of those seasons, four of the five times we were division champions. The only time we weren’t was in the 2006 season and arguably we should’ve made it to the playoffs that year too if it wasn’t for the meltdown at the end of the season.

So I guess the season opener against them is more important than you think if you go by history….
