Pittsburgh Steelers 2014 Schedule

The NFL waited a ridiculously long time to release the 2014 schedule this year, but it's finally public. For reference, the ACC released their men's basketball schedules for 2014-15 before the NFL released their schedule. As a reminder, opponents are determined based on a matrix, so the only thing the NFL really has to do to put the schedule together is determine the order teams will play their opponents, since the opponents have been predetermined based on the final order of the standings, which we have known since December 31. I'm not sure why it has taken the NFL 113 days to put this thing together. The one important thing to note is that the Steelers only have to make one trip outside of the Eastern Time Zone (to Tennessee). For those that don't remember, the Steelers under Tomlin are 76-44 overall (.633) and 70-28 (.714) in Eastern Standard Time. By contrast, Tomlin is just 6-16 (.272) outside of the Eastern Time Zone. The Steelers win in Green Bay last year broke an 8-game losing streak outside of EST that dated back to November 2011.
