This week the Pittsburgh Steelers have a shot to not only secure a playoff spot but could win the AFC North if a few things fall their way. We have four games we are keeping our eye on this week for the Steelers and you should too.
Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns
This Monday Night Football showdown is the one to watch for Pittsburgh. If the Steelers can get past the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night, a Ravens win over the Browns would mean the Steelers would win the AFC North.
Kansas City Chiefs vs Miami Dolphins
This is the game to watch for that No. 1 seed in the AFC. Pittsburgh has the edge right now over the 11-1 Chiefs for the top see but this can change quickly. The Dolphins are playing very good football right now and could get the home upset.
Tennessee Titans vs Jacksonville Jaguars
If the Steelers do start to falter late in the season, playoff positioning will be the thing to keep an eye on. The Tennessee Titans enter the weekend as one of two teams in the AFC South fighting for their conference title but a loss by the Titans means the Steelers make the playoffs whether they win or lose.
Indianapolis Colts vs Las Vegas Raiders
Another scenario that gets the Steelers into the playoffs on Sunday is if the Raiders lose to the Colts. Pittsburgh gets the Colts later in the season so let’s root for them today to get Pittsburgh into the playoffs with a win over Las Vegas.
