    Steelers have the 3rd hardest schedule

    The AFC North his getting slammed with strength of schedule. Of course these things are based off of last year's team records so they're not always accurate but still.


    Rank Opponents' combined 2023 record Opponents' combined 2023 win percentage
    1 Browns 158-131 .547
    2 Ravens 155-134 .536
    3 Steelers 154-135 .533

    Since you left out the Bengals I assume their schedule is much easier.

    Right. Takes no offseason moves or anything into account.

    I'm pretty sure the Steelers had the toughest schedule in 2008. It really matters more how good the Steelers are than how tough their schedule is.

    Re: Steelers have the 3rd hardest schedule

    ehh , I've never been one to be to concerned about "strength of schedule" ...I mean its based on Last years results , Free agency changes rosters , age changes rosters , injuries change rosters and the draft changes rosters ... basing this years results on last years teams is kinda silly IMO ...

    Look at the Bills alone as an example of such .... they lost Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis at WR and basically their entire secondary is gone couple that with 2 long term coaches yet we are supposed to consider their record of last year this year when 35% of the team wiLL be different starters and 2 different coaches

    Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. 4 teams in 5 years and traded twice in one off season

    Ha! That hasn't happened since 1988. I wonder if the oddsmakers know that?

    Steelers have a 16-8 record vs the AFC North since 2020.

    Hopefully that trend continues...

    Steelers haven’t finished last in the division since the 80’s.
