PITTSBURGH —
The Steelers have come a long way in not a lot of time since fans were calling for the team to fire coach Mike Tomlin.
That happened Nov. 30 in a 26-7 home loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Since then, the Steelers have won three straight games and are on the cusp of clinching a division title.
With two weeks to go in the regular season, here’s what the Steelers need to happen:
If the Ravens lose Saturday night in Green Bay, the Steelers clinch the AFC North. The results of Pittsburgh’s final two games won’t matter.
If the Ravens win Saturday, the Steelers still have a chance to clinch this week. A win Sunday in Cleveland would also punch Pittsburgh’s ticket to the postseason.
If nothing goes the Steelers’ way this weekend, the Ravens win and the Steelers lose, it will come down to week 18 when they play head-to-head at Acrisure Stadium.
The date and time of that game will be announced after week 17 games are complete.
