Breaking Down the Pittsburgh Steelers 2012 Schedule
Let’s take a look at the 2012 NFL Schedule for the Pittsburgh Steelers in terms of wins and losses.
Week 1-@Denver I am a little feaful of this game. Week 1, injury questions and playing Peyton Manning on the road. I think this one will be close but I give it to the Steelers with a WIN
Week 2-Jets I am so tired of hearing about the New York Jets when they really aren’t that good. Steelers come in and cruise to a WIN
Week 3-@Raiders Another team that is just vacant talent-wise at too many spots to compete with what should be a healing and improved Steelers team. WIN
Week 5-Eagles They’ve been riding this wave, but after traveling across country and coming back to face an in state rival I expect a slip up here. LOSS
Week 6-@Titans Nothing helps get the bad taste of a loss out of your mouth like a game like this. Steelers take out the loss here with a big WIN
Week 7-@Bengals Traveling to Cincinnati worries me. This is going to be a split division series I think so here I give the Steelers a LOSS
Week 8-Redskins Robert Griffin III comes to town and gets a rude welcome from the Steel Curtain defense. WIN
Week 9-@Giants Oof. This game has game of the year written all over it and I’m sure there will be a lot on the line here, and the Steelers trip up. LOSS
Week 10-Chiefs Prime time game in Pittsburgh and that’s when they shine under the bright lights. WIN
Week 11-Ravens Back to back weeks and back to back prime time games but this time the Steelers end up on the wrong side. LOSS
Week 12-@Browns The healing of the loss comes in the form of a road game in Cleveland. Steelers reving up for the playoffs with a WIN
Week 13-@Ravnes And the payback tour starts with a trip to Baltimore and a huge divisional WIN
Week 14-Chargers The Steelers ride the wave of last weeks win with a beat down of an overrated Chargers squad. WIN
Week15-@cowboys I realize the Cowboys are known for their late season folds, but I’m not so sure this year. After the emotional win the week before, the Steelers leave Big D with a big LOSS.
Week 16-Bengals 2 division games to finish the season and lots riding on them. The Steelers rally for the WIN
Week 17-@Browns Steelers round out the year looking for that 11th win and likely an AFC North Title. Luckily they get a bye to finish the season. WIN
So by my count that puts the Steelers with an 11-5 record and right at the top of the AFC. With their injury problems this will be a challenge, but I’m putting this team on the back of Ben Roethlisberger to carry them into the playoffs.
