-5 prime time games (3 Sunday night games, 1 Thursday night, 1 Monday night)

-Open the seasons against the Ravens (love it)

-Play Cleveland twice in the last 4 weeks

-Bye week is later than in the season than usual for the Steelers (nice)

-Christmas Eve and New Year's Day games thanks to the way the calendar year shapes up.

I'm guessing 13-3 or 12-4 at this point.

Rough ending to the schedule though. A MNF game out west in San Francisco and then come back with a Saturday home game vs the Rams. It's already a short week when you have a Monday night game and then a regular Sunday game--let alone a Saturday one.

12-4

Do they get credit for two wins for beating Arizona to move from 4-2 to 6-2? :)
As a Browns fan I like them closing the season against each other, but I wish the first game was somewhere in the middle of the season.

Ok, I went back and added it.

I'll say win on that one, although I could see a possible upset from a team like the Rams, Niners or Cleveland just based on how crammed those games are.

also that stretch where they have all the AFC South teams in a row will be difficult

none of those are sure wins

I love that the Ravens asked to not play a night game in Pittsburgh and the NFL told them to fuck off

wasnt that a few years ago though? A couple of years ago they requested it because they had played in pittsburgh for 2-3 straight years in primetime.

They requested it last season and got it. As mentioned earlier they asked again this season and was denied. Paper tigers.

This is the first I heard of this.

Why wouldn't they want it? Pitts/Balt at night, in the cold. It doesn't get much better than that.

I knew it was a year to two ago when they asked for it. Balt and pitt didnt end up playing in prime time that next season but who knows if their requeset had anything to do with it.

Steelers are very dominate at home in prime time. It started in the Cowher era and kept on...espeically at home.

That is why they requested not playing in pitt in prime time. Did not hear them ask again this year but I havent been following lately.
