There are six games left in the NFL regular season and the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to try to claw their way into the playoffs. The Steelers lost to the Cleveland Browns last week breaking their four-game winning streak and putting their record at 5-5. With six games left to play, the race for the wildcard in the AFC has really tightened up and despite the Steelers on the outside looking in, they still have hope.
1-New England Patriots (9-1)
2-Baltimore Ravens (8-2)
3-Houston Texans (7-4)
4-Kansas City Chiefs (7-4)
5-Buffalo Bills (7-3)
6-Oakland Raiders (6-4)
7-Indianapolis Colts (6-5)
8-Pittsburgh Steelers (5-5)
The best bet for the Steelers going forward is to win every game and root against the Colts and Raiders. The Steelers play the Bills later in the year but unless they have a major meltdown, the No. 6 seed is what the Steelers are chasing. Pittsburgh holds the tiebreaker over the Colts by beating them earlier in the season but they need some luck with the Raiders and their remaining schedule to keep pace.
