2014 Schedule

[DBR96A]

Since I live in Georgia, road trips to see the Steelers play the Falcons, Panthers, Jaguars and Titans are all necessary.

Well on paper that's as easy as it gets.

If that bastard Goodell has ANY sense of justice, he will see how we got screwed out of a playoff spot and not take any of our draft picks....I hope Dan tells him that pronto...

Damned straight the Rooneys are taking this issue to Goodell. This cost the team a trip to the playoffs, along with bonus money that every member of the roster lost because the league's referees failed to do their job! When the league admits its mistake (photographic evidence suggests that they will have to admit guilt), they will have to strike a compromise with the Steelers. We will have our full share of draft picks this year. The Rooneys must insure that this is the case.

I wouldn't suggest to the Rooneys that they sit on their hands with this. They are elite owners in this league and their action (or inaction) will speak volumes to the other owners in this league.

BTW, I wouldn't give the dried out fertilizer that the Cleveland Browns are for Goodell's vaunted "sense of justice". The Rooneys need to remind him who put him in the job... and who can remove him if he doesn't get his g*ddamned act together!

Geographically, this schedule couldn't be easier on the AFC North, in general, and the Steelers, in particular. We play a grand total of one game outside of the Eastern time zone when we play Tennessee on the road. Our road schedule next year is remarkably easy. If they simply resolve to not let next season degenerate into the clusterf*ck that this season became, the playoffs will be not only realistic but also attainable!

Lookin' good. No trips to the west coast. Only dome game is in Atlanta.

Not to mention that at least 3 or 4 of the "away" games will probably be like home games (Carolina, Jax, Cleveland, Tenn).

15-1

Actually, it's a good thing next year is as easy as it is, travel wise. 2015, the AFC North plays both the AFC AND NFC West. Multiple West Coast trips will be in the cards for every team in the division.

According to [URL="http://www.usatoday.com/sports/nfl/sagarin/2013/rating/"]Sagarin[/URL], you guys had the easiest schedule in the league this year. And in 2012 you had the [URL="http://www.usatoday.com/sports/nfl/sagarin/2012/rating/"]4th easiest schedule[/URL].

Next year doesn't look too tough, either. One quarter of the games are against teams with new head coaches (Cleveland*2, Tampa, Houston). If that schedule does indeed turn out to be cake, then missing the playoffs again next year may get the attention of the front office.

Not my intent (well, not my primary intent ) - it kind of surprised me when I looked it up.

There are a lot of clear-eyed Steelers fans on this site that don't pull punches when they evaluate their team - thought they would be interested to know about SOS the last two years.

It's all good tip and it's always fun to hear from a fan of the dark side thanks for posting
