The 2007 Pittsburgh Steelers season, the first under head coach Mike Tomlin, was a resurgent campaign that saw the team finish with a 10-6 record and clinch the AFC North title. Led by a dominant defense that ranked first in the NFL in total yards allowed and standout performances from Pro Bowlers Ben Roethlisberger and Willie Parker, the team secured a playoff berth and showcased a powerful balanced attack. Highlights included a perfect 4-0 start and a memorable 38-7 victory over the rival Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. The 16th overall pick in the 2003 NFL Draft, Troy Polamalu was a legendary safety for the Pittsburgh Steelers who earned eight Pro Bowl selections, the 2010 Defensive Player of the Year award, and two Super Bowl championships before his 2020 induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
