The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t clinch a playoff spot with Sunday’s win over the Detroit Lions, but the rest of Week 16 broke almost perfectly in their favor. Thanks in part to the New England Patriots’ upset of the Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh’s path to the 2025 playoffs is now clearly defined.
Steelers Clinch Scenarios – Week 17:
– Ravens Loss/Tie
– Steelers Win
– Steelers Tie AND Ravens Loss/Tie
The first opportunity for the Steelers to clinch will actually come a day before their next game, when the Ravens travel to play the Green Bay Packers on the road.
