Steelers schedule 2020: Weeks 13-15

Week 13 vs. Washington Redskins: Win (7-5)

This is a tough one, as both teams had very good defenses to go with embarrassing offenses in 2019. Washington’s offense was actually quite a bit better than Pittsburgh’s late in the season last year, and it’s possible Dwayne Haskins could leap forward this year. Still, with the return of Roethlisberger, I think the Steelers will have more upside for big points. I think Pittsburgh takes the win at home.

Week 14 @ Buffalo Bills: Loss (7-6)

This is a team that the Steelers could definitely hang with, as the Bills don’t yet possess the firepower to blow opponents out of the water. Still, I have Buffalo taking the win on their home turf against the Steelers. The Bills are a tough opponent with a very good defense, and it could be a struggle for Pittsburgh to put up points in this contest.

Week 15 @ Cincinnati Bengals: Win (8-6)

I have the Steelers making one clean sweep in 2020, and that comes against the Cincinnati Bengals. Zac Taylor’s new team has gained a few cornerstone pieces as of late, and the biggest change comes at quarterback with Joe Burrow. However, his impact shouldn’t be enough right away to prevent Pittsburgh from taking the win from the Bengals on their own turf this year.
