Pittsburgh Steelers fans are celebrating today after pulling to 4-4 through the halfway point of the season. It’s a rare thing in the city for a team that is very much used to winning, still, I believe, owners of the best winning percentage since the merger. But when that 4-4 record is earned with three straight wins, and a 4-1 record over the last five, there is some reason to celebrate that, because it means you’re moving forward.
“It’s good to be .500 at the turn early in the week, given where we’ve come from”, head coach Mike Tomlin said in his post-game remarks to the media.
