The Pittsburgh Steelers have literally only once before had a 6-0 record, and that was back in 1978, a year that they won the Super Bowl. They now have the outright lead for the best record in the NFL, which means they are in the driver’s seat for the one and only postseason bye—after two years of missing the postseason entirely.
But there are still 10 more games to go, and they really don’t appear to be thrilled about how the last game ended. After going into halftime with a 17-point lead, they were outscored 17-3 in the second half, and only escaped a trip into overtime by virtue of a missed 45-yard field goal in the final 20 seconds of the game.
