The Steelers have won 22 straight home games on Monday night

The last time the Steelers lost at home on Monday night, Russell Wilson was two years old. Most of his teammates weren’t born. Coach Mike Tomlin was a 19-year-old student at William & Mary.

October 14, 1991. Giants 23, Steelers 20. At Three Rivers Stadium.

Since then, the Steelers have won 22 straight Monday night home games. The most recent was last night against the Giants, 24-16.

In total, the Steelers have 31 home wins as of Monday night, which ranks second in the NFL.

In the most recent home loss on Monday night, 33 years ago, Jeff Hostetler played Bubby Brister, who was replaced by rookie Neil O’Donnell. Trailing 20-0, the Steelers finally tied the game on an O’Donnell touchdown pass to Eric Green. But the Giants won on a 44-yard field goal by former Steelers kicker Matt Bahr with four seconds left.

Since then, the Steelers have not lost a Monday night home game.
