  Nice to have a week off to get healthy.

  Absolutely. It feels good to win the division again.

  Go Steelers!!!!!!!!! AFC North Champs!!!!
• Automatik

  

  I'm happy.
• Non

  

  bigger goals certainly
  
  but this was a tough division race
  
  it took a 12-4 record and they had to deal with the suspension to Ben early on
  
  great regular season
  
  let's get #7

  It's playoff time! Two teams from the AFC North once again.
• killer_ewok

  

  So who do we think makes the trip to Heinz Field in 2 weeks? Indy, KC or B-more?

  Ravens. Do the Ravens play Kansas City or Indy?

  Pittsburgh did what they had to do today. Great to have them back in the postseason after a year off. Going to be a rough road in the AFC, so finishing ahead of Baltimore to get the first round bye was great.

  Up in the air. KC lost today, so if Indy wins their game, they move into the #3 seed. If Indy loses, KC is the #3 and Indy (or Jacksonville if they win while Indy loses) is the #4. At least that's what I think...I do confess I'm not 100 percent on that.
  
  If I was a Ravens fan, I'd only be worried about the Colts just because of Manning. KC and Jacksonville...something tells me they'd be early eliminations this year, as I think NE, Pittsburgh, Baltimore and the Jets are a step ahead of anyone else (with the fucking Pats probably being a step ahead of the other three right now).

  for some reason I think it will be Baltimore
  
  but Indy is probably going to be No. 3 so if they beat the Jets they'll go to Pittsburgh
• Non

  

  If Indy wins
  
  then it will be:
  
  (6) Jets at (3) Colts
  (5) Ravens at (4) Chiefs
  
  Colts must go to Pittsburgh if they win
  
  that scares me because our pass defense can be shaky
  
  Baltimore is a great team but in terms of styles the Steelers and Ravens are basically mirror images
• killer_ewok

  

  Pray for bitter cold and snow if it's Indy.
• Non

  

  just a guess but I think the Steelers will play on Saturday, Jan. 15 at 4:30 p.m.
  
  the first divisional playoff game
  
  the Saturday night game has alternated each year between a CBS game and a Fox game and last year CBS had it with Baltimore at Indianapolis, so Fox probably has the Saturday primetime game
  
  then of the two AFC games which is more likely to be on Sunday and I think definitely New England as the No. 1 seed
• Non

  

  Colts are tied 20-20 late in the 4th
  
  they're going to win the division because the Jags are going down
  
  but they'll remain the No. 4 seed if they lose and play Baltimore
• killer_ewok

  

  Ravens at Chiefs
  
  Jets at Colts
• rock_knutne

  I really don't care who the Steelers play, history is on their side when it comes to playing a divisional playoff game at home after a bye.
• outdoorsman

  I like the upper seeds in both AFC wild card games.
• GoPens

  

  The division title is the Steelers 20th since the NFL merger in 1970, the most in the league.
  
  Here is the complete playoff schedule for the next 2 weeks...

  Good call. Just saw that date and time confirmed on Facebook.
• I Wear Pants

  So who do I root for in the wild card?
• BRF

  

  Oh look! I see NO Browns fans on here making snide remarks. As a "logical" Browns fan, I say congrats...once again (especially to you North Central Ohio fans ). One day I hope to be able to start a thread like this! Since most of you posting on here are good guys in my book, BRF wishes your team good luck in the play-offs. (Ouch, that kinda hurt)
• OQB

  

  lol the road to the AFC North division Championship definately runs through Pittsburgh....no doubt about that! I just can't wait til the Browns can get out of "rebuilding mode" and actually be in the hunt for the division....who knows how long that will take, especially now that Mangini may get fired and we will have to start completely over.........Again.
  
  Congrats Steelers, and your welcome for producing/grooming your Super Bowl winning QB.

  Defense wins championships. Although the offense is starting to gel.
