Baltimore and Pittsburgh are both 10-5, and the Ravens clinched an AFC playoff berth after a convincing 34-17 win over the Steelers at M&T Bank Stadium.
Baltimore had lost 8-9 to Pittsburgh but used a strong performance from their defense and 162 yards from Derrick Henry to stay in the race for the AFC North title.
Henry averaged 6.8 yards on 24 carries, while Lamar Jackson was 15-23 passing for 207 yards (9.0 avg), three touchdowns, one interception, and a 115.4 rating. Jackson’s counterpart, Russell Wilson, played his worst game as a Steeler, going 22-33 passing for 217 yards (6.6 avg), two touchdowns, and one pick-six interception to Marlon Humphrey that essentially put the game away.
Baltimore will face Houston on Christmas Day, Cleveland in Week 18, Pittsburgh will face Kansas City on Christmas Day, and the Bengals in the season finale.
