What Has to Happen to Make it to the Postseason
Posted by Matt Loede on December 27th, 2009 in News
Now that the Steelers are 8-7 and still alive, many are asking that million dollar question – what has to happen for the Steelers to make the playoffs?
As far as I can tell, here’s what has to happen after the Jets won, Texans won, Jags lost, and Broncos lost today:
FOR THE 5TH SEED
1) Steelers beat Miami.
2) Houston loses at home to New Engalnd.
3) Jets lose to Cincy at home and Baltimore loses to the Raiders in Oakland.
FOR THE 6TH SEED:
1) Steelers beat Miami.
2) Houston loses to the Pats at home.
3) Jets lose to the Bengals at home. (Baltimore 5th seed, Pittsburgh 6th)
So while the Steelers have to take care of business in South Florida next week, they will be scoreboard watching as they have to root for two teams they really hate – the Bengals and Patriots.
