Innovative, ingenious, revolutionary, groundbreaking. All words of praise to describe someone that has excelled in whatever their field is and changed it for the better. In the sports world, I would use those words to describe John Wooden, James Naismith, and Bill Walsh, among others. Contrary to what we may have been lead to believe by the “experts,” Josh McDaniels is not one of those people. In fact, he’s not even close.

It just like the past few years, there are 3 certain things: death, taxes, and the Pittsburgh Steelers losing to the New England Patriots. Since 2011, the New England Patriots have won 5 of the last meetings between the two teams with some of those being in dominate fashion or the Steelers choking away the game, including last year’s matchup between the two teams. Going into this game, the Patriots were looking to rebound after their loss in Miami while the Steelers were looking to end a 3 game losing streak. With playoff spots and divisional titles on the line for both squads, a loss would be devastating. But when the final gun was shot, only one team was able to walk away with their head held high and improve their playoff chances.
