Welp, I guessed the bye week right. That is about it. I guessed for fun, and it failed miserably.
On Thursday evening, the NFL released its complete 2020 regular-season schedule. Here is the what the actual 2020 Pittsburgh Steelers schedule looks like:
Week 1 (Mon. 9/14) - at New York Giants, 7:15 PM ET on ESPN
Week 2 (Sun. 9/20) - vs Denver Broncos, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 3 (Sun. 9/27) - vs Houston Texans, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 4 (Sun. 10/4) - at Tennessee Titans, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 5 (Sun. 10/11) - vs. Philadelphia Eagles, 1:00 PM ET on FOX
Week 6 (Sun. 10/18) - vs Cleveland Browns, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 7 (Sun. 10/25) - at Baltimore Ravens, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 8 - BYE WEEK
Week 9 (Sun. 11/8) - at Dallas Cowboys, 4:25 PM ET on CBS
Week 10 (Sun. 11/15) - vs Cincinnati Bengals, 1:00 PM ET on FOX
Week 11 (Sun. 11/22) - at Jacksonville Jaguars, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 12 (Thu. 11/26) - vs Baltimore Ravens, 8:20 PM ET on NBC
Week 13 (Sun. 12/6) - vs Washington Redskins, 1:00 PM ET on FOX
Week 14 (Sun. 12/13) - at Buffalo Bills, 8:20 PM ET on NBC
Week 15 (Mon. 12/21) - at Cincinnati Bengals, 8:15 PM ET on ESPN
Week 16 (Sun. 12/27) - vs Indianapolis Colts, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Week 17 (Sun. 1/3) - at Cleveland Browns, 1:00 PM ET on CBS
Obviously, some contests stick out more than the others.
Week 1 at the Giants will be the first time the Steelers opened up on Monday Night Football since 2016, when they defeated the Washington Redskins, 38-16, at FedEx Field in Landover.
Week 5 vs the Eagles will be Philadelphia's first trip to Heinz Field since 2012, when a last-minute field goal by Shaun Suisham propelled the Steelers to a 16-14 victory. It is a real shame that two in-state rivals are only playing once every four years.
Week 12 vs the Ravens will be must-watch television. One of the best game's rivalries on Thanksgiving night at Heinz Field. Sign me up. This rivalry never fails...except twice last year, especially when the Steelers needed it most in Week 17.
Week 14 at the Bills will be another signature game. The two teams battled in a great defensive contest in Week 15 of the 2019 season, also on Sunday Night Football. Bills Mafia invaded Pittsburgh and made their voice heard in the Bills' 17-10 victory. Expect A LOT of Steelers fans to make the drive up I-79 and across I-90 into Orchard Park to take over New Era Field.
My guesses were not accurate. Hopefully, my result predictions will be a little bit more correct.
