# 2024 Pittsburgh Steelers season

The 2024 season was the Pittsburgh Steelers' 92nd in the National Football League (NFL), their third under general manager Omar Khan and their 18th under head coach Mike Tomlin. After reaching their 10th win in Week 14, they matched their win total from last year. Despite losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 15, the Steelers made the playoffs for the second consecutive season after losses by the Indianapolis Colts and the Miami Dolphins that same day. However, the Steelers had a late-season collapse by losing their last four games, resulting in them losing their lead in the AFC North and failing to improve on their 10–7 record from last year despite a 10–3 start. Their late-season woes continued into the playoffs where they were eliminated in the Wild Card round by the AFC North rival Baltimore Ravens, resulting in the Steelers' sixth consecutive loss in the postseason.
Following their win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2, the Steelers started 2–0 for the first time since 2020, while allowing their fewest points (16) over their first two games since 2007. The team meanwhile scored its fewest points (31) in a 2–0 start since 1936. In earning another win in Week 3 over the Los Angeles Chargers and moving to 3–0, the Steelers held each of their first three opponents to 10 points or fewer for the first time since 1973. Following a Week 13 victory against the division rival Cincinnati Bengals, the Steelers clinched their 21st consecutive non-losing season, to tie the official NFL record set by the Dallas Cowboys from 1965–85.
