Even Mike Tomlin’s 8-8 Pittsburgh Steelers team of 2013 didn’t take seven games to get their first back-to-back wins on the season. It took six games, to be fair. The last time it took seven games was in 2014, when they alternated wins and losses before going on a run that gave them their first division title since 2010.
The 2019 edition of the Steelers also just took seven games to get its first set of wins in back-to-back performances, but this one has a losing record after beginning the season with a three-game losing streak.
