Steelers open 2024 schedule versus Falcons
As he settles in as Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator, Arthur Smith will reportedly head into familiar territory right away. The Steelers will travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons in the season opener.
Smith spent the last three years as the Falcons’ head coach, amassing a 21-30 record before his firing after the 2023 season. He then latched on with the Steelers, where he’ll now work with a quarterback room of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields after some major moves this offseason.
Pittsburgh and Atlanta both made major moves at the quarterback position this offseason. Wilson is coming in as the expected starter for the Steelers this year with Fields as his backup while the Falcons signed Kirk Cousins to a lucrative contract and selected Michael Penix Jr. with the No. 8 overall pick in the NFL Draft. Raheem Morris is now at the helm for Atlanta, as well.
Pittsburgh hosting Kansas City on Christmas Day
Leading up to the full schedule release on Wednesday night, the Steelers also learned they’ll host the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day. It’s one of two games that will stream exclusively on Netflix for the first time in league history.
This year’s matchup will be the 38th meeting all-time between the Steelers and Chiefs. The two teams last went head-to-head in the 2021 Wild Card Round with the Chiefs defeating the Steelers, 42-21. Pittsburgh has dropped three in a row to Kansas City, last picking up a win during the 2017 regular season.
