Here’s some quick and immediate reaction:

  • The door has definitely been left open for a Winter Classic between the Pens and Caps at Heinz Field. With the last home game being on the 23rd, there would be plenty of time to assemble the rink before the January 1st game and enough time to take it down before a potential first-round playoff game.
  • Three night games in a row in the middle of the season, two of them on the road. Ouch.
  • Five night games total? Wow. That’s got to be among the most of any team in the league. The Steelers are getting a lot of air time for a 9-7 team.
  • December is officially Rivalry Month. Maybe we’ll call it Hate Month. Not sure yet. Either way, with Baltimore, Cincy, and the Jets, it’ll live up to it’s billing.
  • Barring Santonio deciding to “wake and bake” again, we’ll see him back here on December 19. Can’t blame CBS for picking that as one of their 4:15 showcase games.
  • Did the NFL have Ben’s suspension in mind when they made the schedule? Notice how all of our prime time games come after the 6th game of the year. Don’t read too much into that, but just thought it was interesting that 5 of our last 10 games are in Prime Time.
  • Our secondary will definitely get eased into the season. Atlanta and Tennessee are both run-heavy teams. Tampa’s passing game isn’t much of a threat. The first test will be in Baltimore against their re-tooled passing attack.
  • The Steelers only have to travel outside the Eastern Time zone twice: to Nashville (vs Tennessee in Week 2) and to New Orleans (on Halloween).
  • Halloween game in New Orleans? Buckle up.
