Steelers’ Loss To Ravens Ensures Fate Of AFC North Won’t Be Determined Until Week 18

The Pittsburgh Steelers could have locked up the AFC North by beating the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Because they failed to do so, the fate of the division will remain in limbo until Week 18. Neither the Steelers nor the Ravens can win the AFC North in Week 17, regardless of the other team’s results.

The Ravens did secure a playoff berth by beating the Steelers, allowing for the distinct possibility of a rubber match. The Steelers have beaten the Ravens in the playoffs multiple times, but Baltimore has the last laugh. If that rematch does happen, we won’t know who hosts it for a while yet.
