Im sitting here tonight watching the local news in Pittsburgh mainly on KDKA and on Channel 11 and Im telling you right now these guys on here that do the sports are completely clueless on how the Steelers can still get in the playoffs as the 6 seed. Channel 11 keeps saying that even if the Jags,Jets,Broncos and Texans all lose this Sunday and the Steelers beat the Ravens that the Steelers would still need the Ravens to lose in Oakland the last week of the season and that the Broncos would go in over them as the 6 seed in the AFC and that is completely and utterly wrong.
What the Pittsburgh sports media is totally leaving out is that the Ravens can still beat the Raiders in Oakland the last week and finish 9-7 and the Steelers can beat Miami and finish 9-7 with the Broncos who play Kansas City the last week of the season and get in over them as the 6 seed. They are completely failing to mention and realize that all 3 the Ravens,Steelers,and Broncos are competing for 2 different seeds. The Ravens if they finish 9-7 with the Steelers get the tiebraker with the Steelers for the 5th seed because of division record,and then head to head with Denver since they beat them. That however, doesnt mean the Steelers get automatically cancelled out of the 6th seed with Denver because it's a completely different seed. The Steelers would get in as the 6 over the Broncos because they beat them head to head. For the Pittsburgh media to fail to get this whole scenario thing right and deliver false information is completely inexcusable in my opinion. These guys had better catch up on this and update their information because they are totally completely wrong on every single scenario they have said for the Steelers getting in. Has anybody else noticed this or picked up on this while watching the local news sports last night and today Im just curious??
