2014 Schedule

I know this could have waited another 12 hours and it would be firm, but I was looking ahead to next year and thought I'd share it a little prematurely.

The Steelers will finish either 2nd or 3rd and the Jets/Dolphins are to be determined too. With that in mind...


AWAY
Baltimore
Cincinnati
Cleveland
Jacksonville
Tennessee
Carolina
Atlanta
Jets/Dolphins

Home
Baltimore
Cincinnati
Cleveland
Houston
Indianapolis
New Orleans
Tampa Bay
Kansas City/San Diego

What jumps out at me is that regardless of todays results, the Steelers will do very little traveling and have 15 of their games in the Eastern Time Zone. This should be welcome to those who questioned Tomlin's itineraries this year. Regardless, the Steelers have historically been abysmal out West, so in 2014 that won't be an issue.

Also if the schedule maker is kind, the impact of weather could be reduced greatly with so many southern teams on the schedule. Hopefully Jacksonville, Atlanta, and (possibly) Miami are second half of the year games. If so it could bode well for the offense which will undoubtedly have to carry this team next year.

For those living in and around the Pittsburgh area, this is an AMAZING schedule if you want to plan a road trip. Surely at least a few of those Southern games will be later in year and what would be a better get away than a weekend in November/December in Miami? Or even Jacksonville?

All in all, I look at the schedule and see an easy 12-4 possibly 13-3 ...(bookmark it for next year Jack!)

 

19-0 bobby.

 

Sweet! I'll get to watch the Steelers in 2014 without having to leave Atlanta.

 

Awesome thread Bobby!

 

Here's another thought...

If the Steelers away schedule were to be in exact order: Carolina, Tennessee, Atlanta, Jacksonville, and Miami they could fire Todd Haley and then (re)hire Rams WR coach Ray Sherman as OC and recreate "Sherman's March to the Sea" where the Steelers offense scorches its way from Charlotte to Miami leaving everything in ruin.



**edit**
Provided Gilbert doesn't injure too many other O linemen.

 

we could drop off he and pouncey back in fla. and foster in tenn. and whimper in the Carolina's.

 

No offense TTF, but I'm gunna wait for my buddy HineswardHOF to weigh in with his prediction before I commit. LMAO

 

c'mon you non believers. 19-0. the board would shut down, because we would have nothing to talk about except our 8th trophy.

 

You know damn well several posters will complain that Tomlin did it with Cowher's players, a few more will blame DL's schemes for not allowing us to win 52-0, and yet a few more will find some way to find fault with Arians. Meanwhile I will be drinking a bourbon barrel aged stout screaming for them to draft a competent OL in the 2015 draft.

 

more truth than fiction. we need a big receiver that can dance better.

 

me likey

2008 the furthest they traveled was to Nashville
and
me likey
the way that season turned out

 

Early look at Steelers 2014 schedule

By finishing second in the AFC North they will play at the Jets and host the Chiefs. Also they will play the AFC South and the NFC South.

 

I am so coming to watch them play the Saints

 

careful what you ask for my friend.. of course this is a shot in the dark... and a lot can change with our cap space.. do we resign sanders? .. who we keep .. who we get rid of.. based on that schedule if we dont go 11-5 we would really suck.. i mean if i could make up the schedule thats about what i would choose.. so right now id have to go 11-5... but then again .. we were 8-8 with ben playing every game.. probably almost every down... BUT if ben plays all 16 games next season and with that schedule .. 11-5 should be a lock .. now you got it ..

HINES

 

I remember Sherman. He took the blame for Kordell not becoming a consistent Q.B.

 

Does anybody know which teams we play next year. We should have the 6 games from the AFC North, I think I heard we play the AFC West teams, and the NFC South teams and then we play who ever finished in 2nd place in the AFC East and AFC West. Which should make up the the schedule.

So in short. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this.
Ravens twice
Browns twice
Bengals twice
Broncos
Chiefs
Raiders
Chargers
Saints
Panthers
Falcons
Buccaneers
Titans
Jets

Thanks for moving my post guys, sorry about that. Didn't see that a thread was started already.

I'm happy. No Raiders or Vikings, but the dang pesky Titans again!!!

 

I'd almost bet that Saints game becomes a SNF or MNF game.

 

2014 home and away opponents

Here they re:

[h=3]Pittsburgh Steelers[/h] Home: Ravens, Bengals, Browns, Texans, Colts, Chiefs, Saints, Buccaneers

Away: Ravens, Bengals, Browns, Jaguars, Titans, Jets, Falcons, Panthers

We get to pay back the Chiefs for not playing their starters!!!
