In 2022, the theme of the Pittsburgh Steelers season was that they generally beat the team they needed to beat while losing to teams that were better than them. The team played the second hardest schedule in the NFL, according to a tweet by Warren Sharp, and they went 2-5 against playoff teams and 3-8 against teams that were ranked top-15 in efficiency. As of now though, their schedule for 2023 is shaping up favorably, as the team plays the 11th easiest schedule. If they take care of teams they should be like they did last year (as Sharp notes, they were 6-3 against non-playoff teams) they should be in better shape in 2023.
Easier Schedule Could Benefit Steelers In 2023
