When it comes to Monday nights in autumn and winter, no team is "ready for some football" more than the Pittsburgh Steelers.
With their 26-22 win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday night, the Steelers ran their all-time Monday record to 56-31-1, per Stathead from Pro Football Reference. A closer look at Pittsburgh's historical Monday game log from Pro Football Reference turns up numbers that are even more impressive.
The Steelers remaining opponents this season will be glad to know that barring any flex scheduling, Pittsburgh does not have any more Monday night games.
As for the Browns, they still haven't started 2-0 since 1993 and haven't won a regular-season game in Pittsburgh since 2003. Nothing is guaranteed in sports, but given the historical trends of these longtime rivals, the outcome of Monday night's game was as close to a lock as you can get.
