Absolutely brutal.
That’s really the only way I can fully describe the 2024 schedule for the Pittsburgh Steelers, which the NFL officially released Wednesday night.
The opponents on the schedule weren’t a surprise, and the strength of that schedule from a matchups standpoint was always going to be quite difficult. But the gauntlet that the Steelers have from Weeks 11-18 is quite discouraging with all six AFC North matchups in that span along with matchups against the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs mixed in.
That’s a make-or-break stretch there for the Steelers.
