The 2002 Pittsburgh Steelers season was highlighted by the team clinching the inaugural AFC North division title with a 10-5-1 record. Led by Comeback Player of the Year Tommy Maddox and Pro Bowlers Hines Ward and Joey Porter, the team showcased great resilience by overcoming a 1-3 start to secure a thrilling 36-33 comeback victory over the Cleveland Browns in the Wild Card round. A 2015 Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee and Super Bowl XL champion, Jerome "The Bus" Bettis was a legendary power running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers who retired as the NFL's fifth all-time leading rusher and earned six Pro Bowl selections.
