Why are these games important?
Although the Ravens have clinched the AFC’s No. 1 seed, the Steelers’ playoff hopes are alive. A win against Baltimore would be huge for the the Steelers’ postseason chances. The Ravens have a chance to enter the playoffs on a seven-game winning streak. They can match their franchise record for most wins in a season with 14 (tying the 2019 team).
For the Colts and Texans, it’s win or go home. Whichever team wins will earn a playoff berth, and if the Jacksonville Jaguars lose to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, then the Texans-Colts winner will win the AFC South division.
The Colts are coming off of a big win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but they haven’t won back-to-back games since their four-game winning streak that spanned Weeks 9-13. The Texans would love to get C.J. Stroud & Co. playoff experience and while they just blew out the Titans, they have failed to string together back-to-back wins over the past six weeks.
