I like this schedule a lot..loaded with either primetime or 4:30 games(which I personally prefer over 1:00)..only thing that concerns me is only 2 home games from Halloween to Christmas...still pumped about it though..is it September yet???

Two home games to end the season is nice and beating The Ravens would be a nice christmas present.

I read all black jerseys for the turkey day game against the all white colts! Well, looks like if I want to watch a game live this season I will have to travel to Pittsburgh, no games out West! Oh well, back to playoff hockey, GO KINGS GO!!!

3 AFC East opponents in a row and 3 AFC North opponents in a row.
Gotta say I love the Pats* game right before the bye and the Ravens right after.

4 out of 5 straight road games, what ever happened to Home-Away-Home-Away...

As Steeler fans it is our sworn duty to whine and complain, so here goes:
Although every team has a Thurs game, ours is away......the 2nd farthest away game all year (until the Super Bowl). And our Sunday game 4 days earlier is an away game.
Why couldn't we have Dallas in late December? We never get warm weather teams in winter!
Ending the season with 2 road games would really suck if we got a wild card spot. We'd have to be away 6 games in a row for the SB. We need to win the division to get a home game or 2.
I work every other Sunday, and we play the Bills on my week to work. Now I have to use a sick day to go to the game. (I live in the Buffalo area)
Every thread needs some negativity or it wouldn't be Steelersxtreme. My job here is done.

I can't complain. Can't think of a much better schedule.

Man the freaking ratbirds on Christmas.......that's a time for love and rejoice.... Sucks that I won't be able to devote the entire day to that spirit......
Instead it's going to transition to this in my house by mid day....

I love these election year / NFC East matchups. I have family who are die-hard Cowboys and Redskins fans.

The tough road games will be Bengals, Ravens and Colts... very winnable games if the Steelers show up and are healthy. Also.. Steelers always seem to play like crap vs. Eagles at Philly. The '08 game vs. the Eagles was a complete and utter nightmare. I still cringe when I think of that game. Awful performance by the Steelers.

I'm really surprised that the Pats***** game isn't prime time. It should still be nationally televised though.
CBS probably said it is entitled to all of the best matchups not going to NBC on Sunday night - Pats**** game definitely is the national doubleheader that day (looks like @Eagles, Cowboys and @Giants also are nationwide late Sunday afternoon games)
Surprised that the Steelers did not get maxed out with 5 night games - works for me
We knew the teams but I like the way the actual schedule is set up except for minor glitches like the Thursday night game in Cincy after a Sunday road game - glad the bye is not in early October or late November as it has been in so many other seasons

Yeah, I misread those last 2 games. And let this be a lesson to you on the results of drinking and typing.

Schedule here
NFL scheduler does the Steelers a solid - Bengals at Heinz in week 2 with Burfict suspended
Monday night opener at Washington - other night games include Thanksgiving night at Indy
Good time for bye in week 8 before first Ravens game in week 9
Having a tough time deciding on what game to go to this season. Top choices are Dallas & the Giants since it's been awhile.
Next after that is the Bengals week 2 as that seems to have slightly taken over the Ravens rivalry and after that I'm pretty open

They are playing the Eagles on my birthday in Philly-I live right over the bridge in NJ from Philly-might be a sign to go.
