Steelers Best In NFL In Two-Point Conversions Since 2001

Now that the league owners have voted to move back kicking extra point attempts 13 yards starting this upcoming season, several are wondering if we might see a slight increase in two-point tries as a result. While that’s yet to be seen, you might be interested to know that the Pittsburgh Steelers are the best in the NFL in two-point conversions dating back to 2001.

As Louis Riddick of ESPN pointed out Thursday, the Steelers have converted 16-of-22 two-point conversion tries since 2001, which equates to a 72.7 percent success rate. The Steelers, however, just barely edged out the Chicago Bears, who according to my research, converted 21-of-29 two-point conversion tries since 2001.
