Steelers Edge Toward Sixth Super Bowl Bid
Pittsburgh enters the playoffs with an 11-5 AFC Central title as the Steelers rebuild each year. Carnell Lake, a holdover from the 1995 team, notes the strong chemistry and unselfish defense. Jerome Bettis backs a run-heavy, tough-d-minded squad while Kordell Stewart starts as a first-year QB. The team aims to reach the Super Bowl again despite losses and a tougher schedule.
