Compiling statistics can take hours upon hours in order to find the proper numbers. To save you the trouble, here are some of the best statistics about the Steelers from the past few weeks.
I will begin with a few statistics of my own before going on to other various Steeler sources. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @STLRSuperFanDad in order to get some of BTSC’s geekiest stats.
Here is a highlight of the past several “Stat Geek” segments from the Steelers Preview Podcast:
Ben Roethlisberger’s touchdown to interception ratio:
Highest: 3.56 (32/9) in 2014 (16 games)
Lowest: 0.782 (18/23) in 2006 (15 games)
Over 3.00:
3.25 (26/8) in 2012 (13 games)
3.40 (17/5) in 2010 (12 games)
Super Bowl Winning Seasons:
1.89 (17/9) in 2005 (12 games); 3.33 (10/3) in playoffs
1.13 (17/15) in 2008 (16 games); 3.00 (3/1) in playoffs
Last 4 Seasons:

Regular Season Career:

Playoff Career:
1.25 (30/24)
Touchdowns scored by Steelers tight ends:
2018: 6 (McDonald: 4; James: 2)
2017: 5 (James: 3; McDonald: 1; Grimble: 1)
2016: 6 (James: 3; Grimble: 2; Green: 1)
2015: 3 (Miller: 2; James: 1)
2014: 5 (Miller: 3; Palmer: 1; Spaeth: 1)
2013: 1 (Miller: 1)
2012: 10 (Miller: 8; Pope: 2)
Heath Miller’s 8 touchdowns in 2012 is the most of any Steeler in a season by a tight end. Vance McDonald’s 4 touchdowns in 2018 has him tied for 11th all-time for the Steelers.
The 3 seasons Ben Roethlisberger has reached the Super Bowl (2005, 2008, and 2010), he was tied for his fewest regular season TD passes of his career (17).

The Steelers have had 9 seasons with 50 or more sacks, but they’ve never had 3 seasons in a row with 50. Their back-to-back 50+ sack seasons were in 2017 & 2018 and in 2001 & 2002. Unfortunately in 2003, they followed their streak with only 35 sacks.
