When was the last time the Steelers had a losing record?

Mike Tomlin can extend his NFL record for longest tenure without a losing season by beating the Browns in Week 12.

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t won a Super Bowl since 2008. They’ve only advanced beyond the Divisional Round of the playoffs twice since then.

But while the Steelers haven’t been great over the last 15 years, they’ve never been bad. Despite the waning arm strength and subsequent retirement of Ben Roethlisberger and the Kenny Pickett/Mason Rudolph-led quarterback carousel that followed him, head coach Mike Tomlin has never seen a losing season in his first 17 years on the job.

A win over his arch rival Cleveland Browns in Week 12 would bring that streak to 18 years — extending his record of most NFL seasons without a sub-.500 record. It would also give him the third-most consecutive winning seasons in league history, behind only Tom Landry (21 straight years of success with the Dallas Cowboys from 1965 to 1985) and Bill Belichick (19 winning seasons with the New England Patriots from 2001 to 2019).

Pittsburgh’s streak of winning campaigns stretches beyond Tomlin. His predecessor, Bill Cowher, had only three sub-.500 years in his 15 seasons at the helm. He left after an 8-8 2006, one year after winning Super Bowl XL.

All told, the Steelers’ last losing season came in 2003, when they went 6-10 with XFL veteran Tommy Maddox at quarterback. With a victory Thursday night in Cleveland, Pittsburgh can make it 25 straight years without a losing record.

Is McDonald’s Grinch Happy Meal coming to the U.S.? Because we want it.

We want our Grinch Happy Meal!

We all love the Grinch, so it’s no surprise a McDonald’s Happy Meal with  Grinch face box that comes with Grinch plushies has gone very viral.

The good news? It’s possible to get one!

The bad news? That’s true ONLY if you live in the United Kingdom, and it’s through Dec. 31.

So, is it coming to the United States? That we don’t have an answer for, so it may not happen this holiday season for the U.S.

But perhaps all the social media shouts will be heard by execs who will send the Grinch Happy Meal our way soon enough.

On the flip side, the Colts (5-6) just went back to quarterback Anthony Richardson and the spark he provided snapped a three-game losing skid. Indy beat the New York Jets in a late 28-27 contest in Week 11.
