The Pittsburgh Steelers may have had one of the weirder schedules in the league over the past month. In their final five games of the season, they will have played once on Thursday and three times on Saturday, including the finale coming up against the Baltimore Ravens.
That has meant two short weeks, and one week shorter than it would normally be, as they played a Saturday after a Thursday game, which teams often view as a ‘mini bye’. They only had two extra days instead of three, and then played again on a Saturday after that. It all makes one wonder who’s making these arrangements and what their plans are—or perhaps it doesn’t.
