When was the last time that you felt good about the Pittsburgh Steelers sitting at the midpoint of a season with a .500 record? I can’t particularly think of one off the top of my head, but there is definitely a sort of catharsis in finding ourselves where we are now in 2019.
It helps that the 4-4 record coincides with a three-game winning streak, most recently against the Indianapolis Colts, arguably the first quality opponent that they have beaten. Even though that was mostly against their backup quarterback, Brian Hoyer, he played well.
