The Pittsburgh Steelers ended the 2023 season with a record of 10-7 and found themselves as the seventh seed for the playoffs. To no surprise, they were first-round exits via Buffalo, but Pittsburgh has had a winning record in 17 straight seasons.
While they ended up with a winning record yet again, the Steelers weren't viewed as a true contender at any point in the season. Improved quarterback play and offensive production remain the keys to getting them back in that discussion.
Will the Steelers be able to compete for an AFC North Title next season? Who do the Steelers face in 2024? Let's look at their schedule for the upcoming season.

Who Do the Pittsburgh Steelers Face in 2024?
The Pittsburgh Steelers will play host to the Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, New York Giants, and New York Jets, in addition to their usual division opponents in the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, and Cincinnati Bengals.
They will have road games against the Atlanta Falcons, Denver Broncos, Indianapolis Colts, Las Vegas Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles, and Washington Commanders in addition to their division rivals.
#Steelers 2024 schedule
HOME: BAL, CIN, CLE, KC, LAC, DAL, NYG, NYJ
AWAY: BAL, CIN, CLE, DEN, LV, PHL, WAS, IND, ATL— Ray Eckenrode (@15MinutesOnline) January 7, 2024
Pittsburgh's 5-1 divisional record was instrumental to their success in 2023, and they will need to have similar dominance against AFC North teams to get back to the playoffs in 2024.
How Difficult is the Steelers' 2024 Schedule?
The Steelers' home schedule looks much more difficult than their road schedule at the moment, as they will play four 2023 playoff teams at home along with the Bengals and Chargers.
If you combine the records of their opponents, the Steelers' 2024 opponents went .533 in 2023. By that measure, Pittsburgh's 2024 schedule is one of the most difficult in the NFL.

The AFC North featured four teams that finished above .500 last year, including the Ravens who made it to the AFC Title game. Baltimore and Cleveland are poised to do well next year, and the Bengals could return closer to their old form with Joe Burrow healthy.
