TOMLIN IN THE PLAYOFFS

MISC. STEELERS POSTSEASON NOTES

Head Coach Mike Tomlin is only the second coach in NFL


history to reach two Super Bowls in his rst four seasons as a
head coach (Joe Gibbs - Washington Redskins).
The Steelers are 7-5 during the Mike Tomlin era in the
postseason, with three of the ve losses being by six points or
less.
Mike Tomlin is the youngest coach in NFL history to win a Super
Bowl. The following is a look at the youngest head coaches in
Super Bowl history:

In 2005, the Steelers became the rst No. 6 seed in NFL


history to win the Super Bowl. Since then two other Wild
Card teams have gone on to win the Super Bowl (10 Green
Bay, sixth seed and 07 Giants, fth seed).

Pittsburgh has played in 58 playo games, which is second


all-time behind Dallas (60).

The Steelers have won 10 of their last 15 postseason games.

* Age on Feb. 1, 2009

Pittsburgh is 8-4 all-time in the postseason at Heinz Field


since the stadium opened in 2001, including winning ve of
their previous six.

The Steelers won the AFC Central title a team-record six


consecutive seasons from 1974-79. They also won four
consecutive division titles from 1994-97.

The Steelers won a team-record seven consecutive


postseason games, including two Super Bowls (IX and X),
from Dec. 22, 1974 through Dec. 19, 1976. They won six
consecutive postseason games from Dec. 30, 1978 through
Jan. 20, 1980, including victories in Super Bowls XIII and XIV.

The Steelers have been shut out only once in the postseason,
during the 1947 Eastern Division Playo game, Dec. 21,
1947, versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The Steelers and
Eagles nished that season with 8-4 records and tied for
rst place in the Eastern Division. In those days, there was
only one NFL Championship Game, so the two Pennsylvania
neighbors squared o for the right to face the Chicago
Cardinals in the Championship Game. The Eagles won, 21-0,
but lost in the Championship Game, 28-21, to the Cardinals,
the same franchise the Steelers faced in Super Bowl XLIII.

The Steelers record for fewest points allowed in a playo


game is ve, during a 34-5 win in the 1978 AFC Championship
Game versus the Houston Oilers at Three Rivers Stadium,
on Jan. 7, 1979. The Steelers allowed a team-high 45 points
during a 45-28 AFC Championship Game road loss to the
Miami Dolphins on Jan. 6, 1985.

Pittsburgh has faced 22 dierent teams in the postseason


and has a winning record against 12 of those opponents. The
Steelers have split their postseason contests with two teams
and have a losing record versus eight teams.
