Squealers in deep trouble (could miss playoffs)

[QuantumMechanic]

By my calculation if BAL wins next week then BAL will win the AFCN leaving PIT a WC at best.

Either KC or LAC will be one WC.

Best PIT can do is 9-6-1. So if either IND or TEN wins they will be 10-6 and PIT is out.
And IND plays TEN next week so absent a tie one of them will be 10-6.

Since Indy plays Tennessee I’m curious what the seeding situation is if that does end in a tie. Indy, Tennessee and Pitt would all be 9-6-1. Who goes?

 

[Reubski23]

The only way they can make it is if the Ravens lose against the Browns and obviously STL must be the bungles

 

[FoxboroFlyer]

IT REALLY IS A BEAUUUTIFUL THING! LOL

If Ravens win Squealers are OUT. End of Story.
If Ravens lose and Squealers win Squealers IN #4 seed.

If Ravens win, Winner of Titans_ Colts are the #6 seed.

I dislike the Squealers and their inbred fan base, but feel dirty
rooting for them Ravens.

I think cleveland has a real shot to take down Baltimore

 

[Guts]

Wait if the Ravens win they're the North winners and Pitt is out?

Such a beautiful thought to see them out of the playoffs.

Well, we've seen that Reich would rather lose than tie, so I don't know if it matters.

 

[fxmallon]

Pitt has a much easier game next week than Baltimore. But that Raven defense is something to behold, so it it's up to par, the Ravens should grab the division title. All the vying AFC teams are tough numbers... making for some very formidable opponents.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

There's also one more possibility if the Texans lose to the Jaguars they would drop to the 6 seed and the winner of Indinapolis vs Tennessee would be the division winner and be the 3 or 4 seed.

 

[TheBeers]

Am I the only one that would rather play the Steelers over the ravens? As it stands now we would play the Texans or ravens.

I think we would beat the Steelers no problem but Bmore D would give us a lot of problems.

I heard on the telecast that Pitt cannot win the WC

Interesting. But definitely a bit confusing because idk the tie breakers between Texans, titans, colts, and ravens.

No one does less with more than Mike Tomlin.

Fun fact: All five of the teams that beat the Pats this year could miss the playoffs.

incorrect...there is more to the story

Was just going to say this. So much talent and they could be golfing in January.

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

Steelers won their SB. They already packed it in.

If that happens then PIT and IND would both have a 6-5-1 conference record. I believe they would have to go to the fourth tiebreaker (common games). Pittsburgh has them beat.

No, if Pitt loses or Balt wins next week, Squealers are OUT. Period. Balt won't lose to Cleve at home but game might be close.
