Pittsburgh Steelers: Best, worst and realistic 2018 playoff scenarios

The Steelers have a half-game lead on the AFC North heading into week 14. The two-game losing streak has not helped and made their chance to have a first-round bye or home field advantage out of their control.

I have analyzed almost every possible playoff scenario and it has made my head spin! It is amazing that almost every playoff seed is still possible for the Steelers with only 4 games left to play.

I will discuss the worst case scenario, best case and how I think it will ultimately end up.

The next four games are at the Raiders week 14, home vs the Patriots week 15, in New Orleans vs the Saints week 16 and a home game vs the Bengals week 17.
