The Pittsburgh Steelers 2022-23 consists of their usual six games out of 17 against divisional opponents in the Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, and Cleveland Browns. These AFC North clashes hold a particular level of importance and largely help determine who will rise to the top of the division.
In addition to their divisional games, the Steelers have four games against the AFC East this year, as well as four games against the NFC South. Pittsburgh’s extra three games in their 17-game schedule are based on the final standings from the 2021 season. As a result, they will have matchups against the Colts and Raiders with an in-state showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. This schedule won’t be easy for a team in transition at the quarterback position, but it should offer a lot of fun for fans.

In a crowded AFC, these conference and divisional contests could ultimately decide the season. The Pittsburgh Steelers have a tough slate of games before their Week 9 bye, and four of their final eight games will come against AFC North rivals.
Late in the year, Mike Tomlin’s team will prepare for three straight road games before closing out the season in Pittsburgh at Acrisure Stadium against the Browns in Week 18. The hope is that the Steelers will still have something to play for by then. This is a tough schedule. Let’s hope Pittsburgh is up to the task this year.
