Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers continue winning ways
Eli Manning Leads Pro Football HOF Class Of 2025 Nominees
Legendary quarterback Eli Manning leads a list of 167 candidates who’ve been nominated for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2025.
Manning, a two-time Super Bowl MVP, joins former Defensive Players of the Year Luke Kuechly and Terrell Suggs as first-time nominees.
A screening committee will cut the list down to 50 nominees next month, before the list is reduced to 25 semifinalists and again to 15 finalists.
Candidates must need 80% of the votes to get into the Hall of Fame, with between three and five modern-era candidates able to be inducted in each class.
Manning will look to join his brother Peyton into the Hall of Fame with both siblings, two of just 13 quarterbacks to win multiple Super Bowls.
Manning was drafted by the San Diego Chargers as the No.1 pick in 2004 before being traded to the New York Giants, where he won his first Super Bowl in 2007.
The four-time pro bowler won his second title four years later, beating the New England Patriots again, and became one of just six players to win multiple Super Bowl MVPs.

Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to prove there’s an opportunity for consistency in the NFL, which is constantly changing and evolving.
Tomlin has provided a winning football culture within the franchise during his 18 years at the helm.
The Steelers improved to 9-3 on Sunday, following a 44-38 victory against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Here’s what you need to know about the Steelers’ winning ways:
How many consecutive winning seasons have the Steelers had?
The Steelers tied an NFL record with their 21st non-losing season, including the last 18 with Tomlin, after the win on Sunday.
Tomlin’s 18-year winning run, which started in 2007, is now four seasons longer of a streak than any other start to a head coach’s career. He’s had at least 10 seasons with double-digit victories during that time.
Tomlin trails Bill Belichick’s 19 straight winning seasons with the New England Patriots, which is second only to former Dallas Cowboys coach Tom Landry.
Landry’s Cowboys are the only other team to accomplish 21 consecutive seasons of finishing at least .500 or better. The feat was achieved from 1965 to 1985.
Who was the coach when the Steelers’ streak started?
Bill Cowher spent 14 years as the head coach of the Steelers from 1992 to 2006. Cowher’s final three seasons from 2004 to 2006 started the winning season’s streak.

It’s going to be a busy weekend in Pittsburgh with the Pirates hosting the Tampa Bay Rays at PNC Park and the Penguins hosting the Philadelphia Flyers for a playoff game at PPG Paints Arena.
The busy sports weekend in Pittsburgh comes less than one week before the city is expecting its largest ever event when it hosts the 2026 NFL draft next Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
Road closures are already in effect on parts of the North Shore, which are expected to have an impact on people attending Saturday’s game between the Pirates and Rays.
Paul Skenes will be on the mound for the Pirates on Saturday for the team’s first bobblehead giveaway game of the season. All fans in attendance will receive a Skenes bobblehead featuring his 2025 National League Cy Young Award.
Last season, fans waited in line for hours to get their hands on the Skenes bobbleheads with “unprecedented” demand for the collectible.
The first pitch between the Pirates and Rays is set for 4:05 p.m. at PNC Park.
This weekend’s Pirates-Rays game won’t be the only hot ticket in town, however, as the Penguins are making their return to the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Saturday night for the first time since 2022.
The Penguins and Flyers will be squaring off in the opening game of the postseason series between the two teams.
Puck drop on Saturday night is set for 8 p.m. at PPG Paints Arena.
