From December 15th to December 25th, the Pittsburgh Steelers will face one of the toughest 10-day stretches in NFL history, as the Black and Gold take on not one, not two, but three potential Super Bowl contenders during this period. If competition truly breeds excellence, Pittsburgh could emerge from these games completely transformed.
Any team being tasked with playing three games in 10 days is daunting enough, but the Steelers must contend with the 11-2 Eagles, the 8-5 Ravens, and the 12-1 Chiefs with little time to rest, let alone prepare for these matchups.
Fortunately, the Ravens and Chiefs are also scheduled to play three games in 10 days, but their opponents are not nearly as challenging as the Steelers’ gauntlet from Weeks 15 to 17.

This stretch has the potential to make or break the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ playoff aspirations in 2024, and I’m confident the Black and Gold will come out stronger than ever. Fans can witness this 10-day test begin in Week 15, when the Steelers take on the Eagles on December 15th at 4:25 PM EST.
