The Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2024 season schedule was officially released Wednesday night. It’s a schedule frontloaded with storylines and backloaded with the AFC North. The end of the season could be the most brutal stretch the team has seen if its opponents are healthy.
However, one of the biggest storylines for the Steelers comes in Week 1 when they travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. New Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith’s first game running the offense comes against the team he coached for the last three seasons and fired him.
“Week 1, let’s face it, Pittsburgh going to Atlanta, it’s a great game,” NFL analyst Brian Baldinger said on The Best Football Show schedule release live reaction show Thursday morning.
