    Surely one of these will happen before Monday night right?

    Pittsburgh clinches a playoff spot with:


    1) NYJ loss

    2) OAK loss or tie OR


    3) TEN loss or tie OR


    4) DEN loss OR


    5) PIT win or tie OR

    Jets @ Eagles (Jets prolly win)

    Lions @ Raiders (This is where I think we clinch.)

    Titans @ Colts (HAHAHAHAHA)

    Patriots @ Broncos (Patriots should crush them as Tim will have to score more than his standard 13-17 points.)

    Edit: Lovely...a spelling error was quoted.

    You have this completely wrong....the Steelers already have 10 wins so they just need Denver to lose to NE and we are in. Steelers own the tie breakers over OAK, TN and the bungholes, if the Jets win out they get the other wild card spot

    I agree. That one seems the most likely to push us through the door.

    Looks right to me...

    Something is wrong with the numbers. Example: If TN wins out they finish 10-6, if the Steelers don't win another game we finish 10-6 and the Steelers beat TN. So how can we lose the tie breaker with TN?

    If the tie is between more then 2 teams, ALL the teams involved in the tie MUST have played each other in order to use the H2H tie-breaker. If even one team hasn't played all the other tied teams, H2H is skipped.

    But, if the tie is only between Pitt and Ten at 10-6 and there is no other 10-6 teams....then H2H is in play.
