    Steelers are def. still in contention of a spot.
    But, I think they have to go at least 3-2 down the stretch of the final 5 games. With how the AFC is its really tight with no really dominate records this year.

    Will have to win Thursday at Vikings. We have to probably beat Titans at home.
    Gonna be pretty hard to be KC at Arrowhead, and they are now playing better.
    Probably have to beat Browns at home on MNF.
    Season finale against Ravens can be a toss up then, but any loss to either the Vikings, Titans or Browns, and this will be required to win get a playoff spot in the AFC

    They probably need to go 4-1 to get in after being swept by Cincy.

    The only game in which I think will be difficult to pull off is at KC the other 4 are winnable.

    Did you think it would be a hard game to pull off when the Lions came to Heinz? Every game is going to be hard to pull off IMO>

    No I get it this team has little margin for error and could lose to any team. I was just stating I feel like the only game we most likely won’t win is at KC, the other games are winnable due to the teams we play and injuries they have.

    FWIW, the team is 11th best in 3rd down stops currently. They're currently statistically doing much better than 2016, when we got to the AFCCG.

    I would like to see what the stats are on 3rd and 15 or more. I'm sure they have to be 32nd there in stopping those the least.
