When Ben Roethlisberger went down with a season-ending right elbow injury in Week 2 of the NFL season, a run like this for the Pittsburgh Steelers didn't seem possible.
After losing their first three games, the Steelers have won five of their last six, including four straight, to emerge as a playoff contender in the AFC. It may be difficult for Pittsburgh to chase down the Baltimore Ravens for the AFC North title, but a wild-card berth seems possible.
On Thursday, the Steelers will look to keep their recent momentum going when they travel to Cleveland for an AFC North matchup against the Browns to open Week 11 of the NFL season.
