Batch on Steelers postgame radio show - Bell will not play next week, especially with a short week.
I saw that too. The problem is they hadn't updated the common opponents yet. If Baltimore wins vs Cleveland next week and the Steelers lose to...
Also combined with Dallas beat Indy today would make the WC game Ravens at Steelers.
Not if Cincy loses to Denver tomorrow and the Steelers next week and they beat the Browns.
There's a good chance that the Steelers beating Cincy next week gets the Ravens in the playoffs with a trip to Heinz.
I was just concerned the NFL f#%$$ up. The playoff machine is messed up. Assuming both Steelers and Ravens finish at 10-6, they'd have 9-5...

I get that the Steelers are in, but the ESPN machine still says the Steelers miss the playoffs at 10-6 if SD beats KC next week BAL beats CLE...
What game gets flexed to Sun Night? GB - DET ATL - CAR CIN - PIT
So what game gets flexed next Sunday night. GB - DET ATL - CAR PIT - CIN
Only if Indy loses a game. Going into the week, Indy was a game ahead.
Coupled with SD beating KC next week too. However, I'd say SD over KC, DEN over CIN, PIT over CIN and BAL over CLE would all be more likely than not.
Not worried about it, just stating how much those games actually mattered.
Also, if the Cowboys beat the Colts today along with above. WC game would be Ravens at Steelers.
Could see Cincy losing to Denver and at Pittsburgh and the Ravens beating Cleveland which would put them in.
Yup. Steelers lost a chance at the bye when NE won today. Of course, had the Steelers beaten the Jets and Bucs, they'd control the 1 seed and...
They either need a loss by SD next week or two loss by the Bengals plus a win over Cleveland to get in.
If the Bengals lose to Denver tomorrow, they may need next week's game vs Pittsburgh just to get in the playoffs.
Three division title games for next week GB-DET CAR-ATL CIN-PIT (provided Baltimore doesn't rally from 25-7 down today)
Either way, if the Steelers beat the Bengals next week, they win the AFCN. If the Colts lose to the Cowboys today and the Steelers win the next,...
