A moment of joy for Steelers fans! Not only is the beloved Black and Gold of the Steel City riding high after improving to 10-3 with a victory over the Cleveland Browns in Week 14, but playoff implications from Week 15’s AFC matchups could spell success for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Mike Tomlin-led Steelers have not one, not two, but three different playoff berths the team could clinch.
If the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers both lose in Week 15, a Steelers win would guarantee that Pittsburgh has a top-five seed in the AFC playoff race.
If the Steelers manage to win, and only one of these AFC West teams win, Pittsburgh will guarantee at least a top-six seed in the playoffs.
Where things get interesting, however, is if the Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins lose, followed by a Pittsburgh Week 15 victory. The Steelers will clinch at least the seventh seed in the playoff race.
A #Steelers win gets them into the postseason yet again, as Mike Tomlin’s magic continues. Anything else this week would need the Broncos or Chargers to slip up. pic.twitter.com/bwYspCkuI9

With many opportunities to clinch a playoff berth in Week 15, can the Pittsburgh Steelers prepare to make 2024 the year when their playoff victory drought finally ends?
