Time is running out.
If the Steelers want to make a push for a spot in the AFC playoffs, they cannot afford another game like Sunday's.
A sloppy 16-14 loss at the hands of the Ravens pits Pittsburgh in 13th in the AFC at 5-8, and while the North division is virtually unattainable -- the Steelers are 4.0 games back of Baltimore (9-4) and Cincinnati (9-4) with four to play -- sneaking into one of the three AFC wild-card berths is still within reach.
The Steelers just need more than usual to go right this week.
