Much has been made of the fact that Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers have been very good on the road over the course of the past two seasons—or to be more accurate, one season and two half-seasons—but before that, they actually kind of sucked for quite a while.
Prior to the Steelers’ recent 15-1-1 road record, there was legitimate criticism to be made regarding Tomlin’s teams outside of Heinz Field. They went 1-3 in the first four road games of the 2016 season before winning their final four on the road, which was the beginning of their current run of success.
