Returning to Baltimore will be the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers fell to the sixth spot and will now face their divisional rivals, the Ravens, after the Los Angeles Chargers upset the Las Vegas Raiders to secure the fifth place in the league. This will be the fifth time the division rivals have faced each other in a playoff game, albeit the exact timing of the match is uncertain.
However, Pittsburgh will meet the Ravens in the playoffs for the first time since 2015. The Ravens and Steelers split their season series, with the Ravens dominating in Baltimore three weeks ago and the Steelers defeating them in Pittsburgh in the first meeting.
The Steelers have a 3-1 record versus the Ravens in postseason games. If the Chargers had lost to the Raiders or Pittsburgh had defeated the Cincinnati Bengals, they could have faced the Houston Texans; nonetheless, it will be a lot shorter trip to play one of the NFL’s hottest teams, who also happen to be their primary rivals.
