The Steelers have to win out to clinch the division, the Rams at home will be a tough game for the Steelers. The Steelers have been playing poorly, the coach is to soft on the players and it shows. This game will be much closer than people think it will be, I see a field goal game and I think Pittsburgh is in trouble. Pit 20 STL 23, could even be overtime.

The Steelers have to win their last 2 games (on the road, mind you) to clinch the division title. They need to win tonight to at least get a wildcard.
Per yahoo news:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/cpress/20071219/ca_pr_on_fo/nfl_picks_tab_2
"The Steelers, who have to win twice on the road to ensure the division title, are just 2-4 away from Heinz field, but are favoured by 7 1/2 in St. Louis. Even if they lose this game, they can make the playoffs by winning their finale in Baltimore, although the division title might go to Cleveland."

Home field advantage in the first round. If they don't turn it around, Cleveland will win the division and they will end up a wild card team. Pitt should win 31 to 14.

Several things.
1. The division title
2. A higher seed
3. Hosting a first round game at home and if the top seeds get upset in the second round possibly a AFC championship game at home.

They are playing for their playoff lives, if they lose tonight, they could end up at home in January instead of playing ball.
If they winout, they will get first game at home as a 3 or 4 seed but that would be it. IF they lose out, they probably watching the playoffs on TV.

They're still playing for the division crown.
If they end up tied with Cleveland, they'll still win the division because the Steelers own the tie-breaker.
If they end up behind Cleveland, they'll be a wild card team.

they have to win and cleveland has to lose in order for them to win the AFC north...
they both are tied at the moment and the division hasnt been decided yet
if it comes down to a tie though steelers would get the division cause they have more divisional wins
