The Pittsburgh Steelers haven't lost a home game on Monday Night Football since Aaron Rodgers was 7 years old.
As you may have heard, Rodgers is a bit older now. He's 42, and he was the Steelers' starting QB on Monday night when they beat the Miami Dolphins, at home, on Monday Night Football.
The streak is now 23 wins in a row, shared on the ESPN broadcast and then widely circulated on social media.
How is that possible? The last time the Steelers lost a home MNF game was on Oct. 14, 1991.

That was even before Bill Cowher was the Steelers coach. Which means that Cowher and Mike Tomlin have both never lost a home game on Monday Night Football.
Even that game in October 1991 was nearly won by the Steelers. They trailed 20-0, then came all the way back thanks to a couple Gary Anderson field goals and a couple touchdown passes by Neil O'Donnell. But the Giants got a game-winning field goal from Matt Bahr in a 23-20 outcome.
This time around, for win number 23 in a row in these circumstances, was not that difficult.
The Steelers built up a 28-3 lead on the Dolphins, and a couple of late scores were meaningless in a game that Pittsburgh controlled from beginning to end.

It was a cold night in Pittsburgh, but maybe exactly how the Steelers like it, breaths fogging up the air, toughness required to handle the conditions.
The Steelers have always had that toughness, that's for sure. And when they're in their own house on Monday night, they simply don't lose.
