hasn't been done in the league since 1935. when jeh started getting social security.

 

If you want to know how long ago that was, the "West Division" was compromised of Detroit, Green Bay, and two Chicago teams (all finished above .500). The East was Boston, New York, Brooklyn, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia. Detroit, Green Bay, the Bears, the Giants, and the Eagles are the only ones that still exist. The Redskins were in Boston and the Cardinals were in Chicago. Pittsburgh was the Pirates.

 

Steelers finished 5-1 against division foes the year the AFC North was record breaking good. I'm proud of my steelers.

 

To be fair, didn't the probability of it happening go up when they moved to 17 games.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it probably happens at least 3 more times in the next 10 years.

 

August 14 1935

 

I'm happy too but in fairness we played Jake Browning twice for the Bengals and Huntley once for the Ravens.

What would it have been if we had Lamar two times and Burrow for both contests?

What is stupid was going 1-3 against the AFC South, what should of happened is we should of went 3-1 against the south and more like 3-3 in the AFC North. Went 2-2 against NFC West. Losing to 49ers is pretty acceptable but shouldn't of lost to AZ.

 

And the Steelers were playing with their third string QB in Mason, Browning beat some teams that were in playoff contention.
