The tiebreaker only matters if they're tied. SD likely getting to 11 wins, so unless the Steelers win next week, they're going to Baltimore for...
They probably aren't getting Houston unless they're able to beat Cincy (who will have something to play for unless they lose this week). If the...
If the Steelers lose to Cincy, they're probably not going to play Houston it will be Baltimore (not that it matters the way the Steelers are...
If the Steelers lose to Cincy, they're probably heading to Baltimore not Houston.
If they beat the Bengals in week 18, they can finish no worse than the 5 seed and would likely play Houston, unless Houston beats the Ravens on...
They did, but that was when the Ravens were still figuring it out and on D when Winston just started, so there wasn't much to see yet. If the...
The one that is going to bit them is the Cleveland loss (or the Colts). But the Cleveland loss is the one that will likely prevent the division...
The Cleveland loss is going to cost them the division and home playoff game. Had they won that game, could lose to Chiefs and won the division vs...
No, you said they'd sit them vs Denver. KC's game before that is Christmas in Pittsburgh. If KC sits their starters vs Denver they wouldn't play...
I'd guess they would want to beat the Ravens, since in the event the Ravens win out and win the North, losing to Baltimore in week 17 would mean...
Then they would be sitting them from Dec 25 to Jan 18/19!! Week 16 - Dec 21 Week 17 - Dec 25 Week 18 - Jan 5 Bye on Jan 11/12, since they'd be...
You really think KC wants to sit guys from Dec 25 until Jan 18/19?
If KC has the 1 seed wrapped up, I don't think they'll sit everyone. That would be nearly a month off (Dec 25 to Jan 19) without playing. Doubt...
The Steelers win any tie with Baltimore with a win in week 18
The only way the Steelers lose the AFCN is the they have to lose 2 more games than Baltimore in the remaining 3 weeks. So either Baltimore goes...
If the Steelers win vs Cincy in week 18, they win any tie with Baltimore.
Correct, if the Steelers beat Cincy in week 18, they win any tie with Baltimore, either at 11-6 or 12-5
If the Steelers go 11-6 (beating Cincy in a likely meaningless game to them), Denver would have to go 3-0 for the Steelers to be the 6.
If they beat Baltimore (if they even played them), they'd probably go to KC first. More likely @ Houston @ KC @ Buffalo (or @ Balt)
If the Steelers get to 11 wins (winning in week 18), they'll probably be the 5 seed which means they'll probably go to Houston. If the Texans...
