Winning a Super Bowl remains the ultimate goal but Mike Florio believes breaking another drought is good enough to make the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2025 season a success. Weighing in on the idea during a Wednesday mailbag for Pro Football Talk, Florio said the bar of a passable season should be determined by if the Steelers win a playoff game.
“For the Steelers, for Mike Tomlin, I think this whole thing is a failure unless they win a playoff game. Anything after that is gravy. They need to win a playoff game. If they don’t, all this stuff we did in the offseason, paying DK Metcalf all that money, waiting for weeks for Aaron Rodgers to come around,” Florio said, implying it wouldn’t be worth the wait without postseason payoff.
