The AFC playoff picture, with a half-dozen 7-7 teams, is as muddled as can be with two weeks to go. Here is where to start when figuring out playoff scenarios for the Steelers: the team must win the final two games, starting with Baltimore on Sunday.
Since tiebreakers are first settled within divisions the most likely path to the playoffs for the Steelers is this one: win their final two games and hope the Ravens also lose their regular-season finale at Oakland and finish 8-8. The Ravens hold the tiebreaker over the Steelers by virtue of a better division record.
If both teams finish 9-7, the Steelers need a lot to happen, including a late-season collapse by the Broncos (8-6) to make the playoffs.
