Pittsburgh Steelers 1997 Season Schedule & Scores

The 1997 season for the Pittsburgh Steelers was truly a tale of two contrasting halves. After a rocky start with three consecutive losses, the team made an impressive turnaround, securing victory in 10 of their final 13 matchups. This remarkable comeback included an exhilarating playoff win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Anchored by a powerhouse defense and the electrifying runs of Jerome Bettis, the Steelers transformed into one of the league's most intimidating contenders. However, despite their late-season surge, their Super Bowl aspirations were dashed in the AFC Championship Game, where they fell to the Denver Broncos.
