Steelers Thowback Thursday: The 1998 Thanksgiving Day Coin Toss

Good morning to all of you and I hope each and every one of you have a great Thanksgiving today.

Each and every Thanksgiving, I can’t help but remember back to 1998 and the Pittsburgh Steelers Week 13 game against the Detroit Lions and that dreadful overtime coin toss. Many of you likely remember right where you were at when that event happened. I know I do. Because of that, here is your annual Throwback Thanksgiving Thursday post.

The Steelers entered that Thanksgiving day game against the Lions with a 7-4 record and they were coming off of a big 30-15 home win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, who sat atop the AFC Central Division at the time.
