Are The Steelers Good or Just Lucky?

This season they had more scoring drives aided by a penalty that any other team...and more first downs by penalty than other team.

So even when they made mistakes they got more chances to correct them.

That alone gives a team a better chance of winning.  Especially when they are a really good team that makes few mistakes anyway.

Just three extra chances a game to try again when you failed can be huge in a single NFL game.

Yep.  The point is that no championship team depends solely on being lucky or on being good.  Championship teams usually need to be both.
