With Tennessee having won for Steelers to make playoffs they will likely need either the Giants beat the Colts or the Browns to win at Baltimore

and of course must beat the Bengals....all assuming they don’t win at NO

Bet they beat NO. If they don't they won't make the playoffs.

I don't think Pitt comes within 7 points of NO at the Superdome. They're on a whole 'nother level playing in the dome. And Pittsburgh has what? 2 wins on the road? 

Going to come down to week 17, IMO. Which as a Browns fans will suck...Pitt will beat Cincy, so we're looking at either beating the Ravens and helping the Steelers or losing to the Ravens which will put Baltimore in the playoffs. Lose/lose

NO offense has been playing like crap and Pittsburgh's defense looked solid last week. Pittsburgh's offense has looked like crap and NO's defense has been better but I don't think it will be enough. Pittsburgh, unfortunately, finds a way to win these.

Agree with your second statement, and I'd love the Browns to be above .500 (don't think they'll win with the way Baltimore's playing) but wouldn't cry if Pittsburgh were left out and Pig Boy was one year closer to retirement.

Chargers fucked the Steelers twice this year

Sure he fumbled 2 inches from being down and gets returned for TD

Oh well...should kill any Rivers for MVP talk

Baltimore is kinda dangerous. Can't understand why teams haven't figured out that they can only run the ball. That defense is nastier than I thought it was.

Because they can actually pass. You watch last nights game?

Yeah, I watched it and Jackson still doesn't impress me. Just a matter of time before he's injured.

But he can pass. So your points of “he doesn’t impress you” and “he’s going to get injured” make no sense

Jackson looked awful throwing the ball. He had the one deep one on the money, but other than that he was garbage. The NFL will figure him out by next season and he wont last. You have to be able to throw in the pocket in the NFL. 12/22, and he wasn’t close on 8 of those 10 incompletions, despite all the Chargers playing the run.

Sad they can’t completely figure it out this year

Colts win makes Pittsburgh's game a must win for them or they're likely out.

Dallas wins the NFC East. Can’t say I saw that coming. 

Also, no way Green Bay doesn’t win this game against the Jets.

Texans lost....

Titans and Colts both won and face each other the next week, can all 3 still win division and also miss playoffs?

Darnold had another stellar game. The Jets set a franchise record for penalty yards with 172. Of course the Packers lone road win would come today.

It was an easy call. Saints defense isn't very good and the league prefers the Steelers in the playoffs.

The Saints are a top 10ish defense this year.

That catch for NO should have not been good .  2nd foot came down in bounds, but 1st foot down in bounds went out before the 2nd one came down in bounds!

If New Orleans scores, better not do it too fast.

Ref is literally 3 feet from that and blew the call.
