    Take it for what it's worth but the ESPN Football Power Index has it handicapped this way for making the playoffs: KC: 94%, the Steelers at 82%, and the Jets at 25%.

If we both win out, however, then we would then both have an 8-4 conference record, and it would have to go to the next tiebreaker, which I believe is common opponents, and we come out on top over NYJ there, if I understand it correctly.
      what he said... if the steelers win out, they are in, regardless of what anybody else does.

        Ok, true, but as a fan even one more week of meaningful football is better than no meaningful football for me.

          Yep. NFL Network agrees... (not that they are the pinnacle of anything ...)

            Unless the Pats lose a player named Brady or Gronkowski they will be a very tough out. Other losses don't seem to effect them.

                There's a decent chance we get the 5 seed even if KC wins out, namely KC winning the West because both Cin and Pit beat Den.

                First things first - beat the Donkos.

                  They're just Yonkos.

                  Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                  Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                  We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                  We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
