abstract
| - The 1988 Pittsburgh Steelers began the season with the death of Hall of Fame team founder & owner Art Rooney at age 87 less than two weeks before the start of the season. The team would wear AJR patches on the left shoulder the entire season in memory of "The Chief". The death of Rooney, combined with the team having several inexperienced players and aging veterans, saw the team stumble to a 5–11 season, their worst record since finishing an NFL-worst 1–13 in 1969. As of 2011, the 5–11 mark remains the team's worst record since 1969, and have only finished with ten losses twice since, in 1999 and 2003.
