After a rocky start, and a bit of a roller-coaster ride, the Pittsburgh Steelers finished the 2002 season undefeated (6-0) in the AFC North, and with the 3rd best record in the AFC, winning them a Wild Card spot in the playoffs against their hated rival, the Cleveland Browns. Looking back at the Steelers team of 2002, most would say that it was the
year of the offense. With the help of quarterbacks Kordell Stewart and Tommy
Maddox, the Steelers set a team single-season passing yardage record with 4,036
yards passing, surpassing the former record of 3,917 yards in 1995. Pittsburgh
also set a team-record with 350 pass completions, breaking their former record
of 348 set in 1995. Milestones of the 2002 Pittsburgh Steelers *T1st indicates record is tied for first-place in Steelers history Coaching
