It would appear that Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers refuse to suffer a losing season. In 15 years as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin holds a .
643 win record and has finished at .500 twice but he’s never had a losing season as head coach.The Steelers were 6-6-1 heading into Week 15’s Heinz Field matchup and if they lost they’d be facing the potential of a losing season. And on Sunday, the Steelers were losing to the Titans at halftime 13-3.
When the stadium then ran out of ketchup, fans were quick to make jokes about how Heinz Field running out of ketchup was some grand metaphor for the mediocre season the Steelers are having after a 12-4 season in 2020.

Kind of a weird thing to announce, isn’t it?

There’s also the chance that this was just a very bad, lame joke and everyone took it literally. People on Twitter went wild with it. If it was all just a joke, it didn’t age well because the Steelers pulled out the W against the Titans after catching up.
