Nearly two weeks ago, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2022 season came to an end. They pulled off the improbable, coming back from a 2-6 start to the season and finished 7-2 down the stretch. They gutted out close wins against the Las Vegas Raiders and Baltimore Ravens and put a stamp on the season by beating the Cleveland Browns at home by two touchdowns, notching them yet another winning season and giving themselves a chance to make it into the playoffs.
However, luck wasn’t on their side as the Miami Dolphins beat the New York Jets that afternoon, clinching the seventh seed in the AFC after defeating Pittsburgh earlier in the year, eliminating them from playoff contention.
