The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t get any help from their AFC competition yesterday, with the Ravens, Patriots, Jaguars, and Titans all winning, which continues to make their margin for error in their quest to secure homefield advantage throughout the playoffs pretty thin.
But they can afford to lose a game, provided that it’s not to the Patriots. And I think we all know that if they don’t lose today, they’re going to lose next week, because the Steelers just can help but think about the Patriots, which means that they have to lose a game before they play said Patriots.
