(05.04.2020) Predicting the Steelers' 2020 schedule and results

Updated: Sep 23, 2021

Although contingency plans are being made to accommodate a possible delay to the start of the 2020 NFL season, the league is planning on moving forward as scheduled.


According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, via Twitter, the league will release its full 16-game schedules for all 32 teams on Thursday evening at 8 PM.


All the Steelers' opponents for the season are set. Now, it is just a matter of finding out when and where those contests will take place.


Here is my schedule prediction, along with a score prediction for each contest:


Week 1(H): Colts - CBS, 1:00 ET on 9/13 (21-17 W) (1-0)

I know nothing more than the average Joe. This is just purely a guess, void of any type of speculation. I had fun with guesses and optimism.


Who knows? Maybe I will end up be at least partially correct. I cannot wait to tune in on Thursday night.
