They are tied with the Cowboys for the most playoff game appearances with sixty two. At the same time they also have two more wins than the Cowboys with thirty six. After winning their playoff games they move on to the Super Bowl. The Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories of any franchise in the league. They have won six Lombardi trophies. Other teams such as the Patriots have appeared in more Super Bowls with ten appearances but they have only won five all during the Brady/Belichick era.
