Tough Schedule for the Steelers


As if getting beat by the New York Giants in week 8 wasn't bad enough, the Steelers have a very tough schedule ahead of them, especially in the next three weeks.

The Steelers will continue to be tested over the next few weeks as they will face some really good teams.

In week 9, the Steelers will go up against yet another tough NFC East team in the Washington Redskins. Not only are the Redskins supporting an impressive record of 6-2, but they also have the best rushing attack in the league lead by Clinton Portis who has 944 yards and 7 touchdowns so far this season.

In week 10, Pittsburgh go up against Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts. Although the Colts have been as good as expected this season, any time Peyton is on the gridiron for Indianapolis, the Colts always will be force to be reckoned with.

And finally in week 11, the Steelers will go up against LaDainian Tomlinson' San Diego Chargers. Much like the Colts, the Chargers haven't really lived up to expectations this year, but Phillip Rivers is playing phenomenal and LT is finally back on track so they will be dangerous from here on out.

Although I believe the Steelers could go 3-0 over the next three weeks, it won't be easy as all these teams will be looking at winning their divisions and any loss could be devastating to their chances.

Expect some really good Pittsburgh football in November!
