MISC. STEELERS POSTSEASON NOTES• In 2005, the Steelers became the fi 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, fi fth seed).

• Pittsburgh has played in 59 playoff games, which is second all-time behind Dallas (61).

• The Steelers have won 12 of their last 17 postseason games.

• Pittsburgh is 8-4 all-time in the postseason at Heinz Field since the stadium opened in 2001, including winning fi 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 Playoff game, Dec. 21, 1947, versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The Steelers and Eagles fi nished that season with 8-4 records and tied for fi rst place in the Eastern Division. In those days, there was only one NFL Championship Game, so the two Pennsylvania neighbors squared off 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 playoff game is fi 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 diff erent teams in the postseason and has a winning record against 12 of those opponents. The Steelers have split their postseason contests with three teams and have a losing record versus seven teams.
