NFL Playoffs Scenario: Steelers can clinch playoff spot in Week 16

The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently the 6th team in the AFC Playoff Picture, but they can clinch a playoff spot in Week 16 with a win over the Baltimore Ravens and some help.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have already moved ahead of the New York Jets in the AFC Playoff Picture heading into Week 16, but there is a very realistic scenario which could find Pittsburgh clinching a playoff spot this weekend.

SCENARIO: If the Steelers beat the Baltimore Ravens in Week 16 at M&T Bank Stadium, and the New England Patriots defeat the New York Jets, the Steelers would punch their ticket to the postseason dance for the second straight season.
