As you might have noticed, the Steelers won’t see a bye week until week 12. That’s the latest that any team can have a bye. The Panthers are the other team to have such a late bye this season. To my recollection, the closest the Steelers have had to such a late bye week in the last 20 plus years was in 2011, when they had a week 11 bye. The week 2 game in Baltimore will also be the first CBS Thursday night game. Thanks for stopping by, and thanks for sharing on the web.
