    Who do you think will be the opponent?

    Season ticket pricing includes Preseason Tier, Gold Tier, Black Tier and Premier Tier, based on the opponents.

    In 2024 there were 10 total home games. For our Price Category, based on seat location, 2 Preseason Tier (Buf and TX) priced at $75, 3 Gold Tier (NYG, Cle and Cin) priced at $185, 3 Black Tier (NYJ, Balt and KC) priced at $215 and 2 Premier Tier (LAC and Dal) priced at $269. Thats a total of $1,888 per seat.

    The 2025 pricing schedule (no increase ha) was accessable in the email announcing the Ireland game. For the 9 total home games in 2025, excluding the 10th home game to be played in Ireland, our steats will cost $1,897 each. That comes out to 1 Preseason Tier at $75, 2 Gold Tier at $185, 3 Black Tier at $215 and 3 Premier Tier at $269

    The Steelers regular season "home" opponents in 2025 are Cle, Cin, Balt, Buf, Miami, GB, Indy, Minn and Sea

    Which teams are Gold, Black and Premier? Based on pricing it looks like what might have been a "Gold Tier" opponent will be in Ireland. My guess Miami or Indy, too far for Sea.

    I think it will be the Packers.

    Rumor on the Fan this morning is that it will be week #4 against the Packers. Reports from Green Bay seem to agree with that, but no official word yet.

    Reports here are that it’ll be the Packers

    Hoping to get tickets but I expect it’ll be difficult. Demand is going to be huge

    If you go to the Croke park hotel which is right beside the stadium and very nice, the weeks for week 2 and week 4 show available, but when you go to book a room it says unavailable. Along with several other nearby hotels. I'm sure they already have an idea and are preparing before we all find out. Would love to make the trip but i bet those tickets will be very very hard to get. We shall see

    I agree East Coast. And AFC team. I think it should be Vikings so Ireland sees Black, Gold and Purple. Freak em out a bit;)

    2025 schedule, we get the NFCN who sent 3 teams to Playoffs. Now in true Steeler fashion we'll go 3-1 with Bears smoking us.;) Actually that would be awesome.

    That's interesting to me. The Lions losing their coordinators could be a different team with a different QB.
    The Vikings will almost certainly have a new QB.
    I always enjoy Steelers/Packers games. I don't hold grudges.
    The Bears could actually be good next season. They have talent.

    Season Ticket holders would be very unhappy if they lost Baltimore/Cincinnati/Cleveland

    Green Bay not so much

    At least for the last two years none of the international games were divisional matchups

    I am hearing the Packers, what a match up. The secondary ticket mark will explode.

    Why on earth would you want to give up the home field advantage against the Ravens to play them on a neutral field

    I said one of, so take your pick. Plus, I think we will get home calls over there.

    Williamson said the possibilities are Packers, Vikings, or Seattle. But the smoke around the Pack makes it seem likely.

    You two might want to make sure you are using a VPN

    Otherwise in the fall you might get up one morning only to find a bunch of us on your sofa eating your chips and drinking your beer

    Green Bay makes too much sense.


    For that matter, the team Pittsburgh would square off against via Ireland should have been obvious. Two historic, league alerting Sports Organizations in North America that value tradition, stability and success. Who else would the NFL have as the opponent?! The Raiders?!


    Having the "criminal element" of the NFL participating in a bid to expand the game's influence probably isn't the best way to sell a product in a nation that has had over two dozen uprisings in its history. Granted, there is also the facet that the Raiders have not been relevant in the NFL since Rich Gannon during the early 2000s either.

    When the Steelers played an exhibition game there many years ago was it against the Bears

    Although I believe momma Bear just passed away
