One more stats of the weird to close out the Pittsburgh Steelers’ season. Thanks to everyone who followed these quirky articles throughout the year. Always one of my favorite to write.
These stats, though, aren’t going to be fun to read.
Let’s get straight into the ugly.
– Over the Steelers last five playoff games, all losses:
– Pittsburgh has been outscored 66-0 in the first quarter.
– They’ve been outscored 122-47 in the first half (-75 differential).
– And outscored 202-134 total in their last five playoff losses (-68 differential).
– Over that span, Pittsburgh has turned the ball over 12 times and forced just two takeaways.
