Steelers aren't even making the playoffs. Yeah, I said it.
The Jets are going to beat the Bills and surprise everyone by beating a listless Patriots team that after falling behind early, decides to do what they usually don't and rest their starters.
AND, the Steelers will go into Cleveland already feeling and acting like they've got the 6th seed locked up and will play down to their opponent (which they usually do anyway). Cleveland has a pretty decent defense as is and with Pitt not taking the game seriously at first, will find themselves down in a hole and unable to get out of it because of the Brown's defense. Meanwhile, Pitt's defense has made AJ McCarron and Brock Osweiler look like pretty good QBs, so Manziel will come out and look like an All Pro against Pitt.
So in 3 weeks while we're trying to figure out which team we're going to play after the bye, Steelers fans will be crying, calling Browns cheaters, calling the refs out for helping the Browns cheat, calling the NFL out for helping the Jets get into the playoffs, calling for Tomlin's head and railing on anyone and everyone about how the Steelers were either undeserving of a playoff spot and/or the NFL front office went through all sorts of effort to keep the Steelers out of the playoffs.
