It won't be the Steelers as they don't have the draft capital. No first round pick this year, no third round pick. They'd basically have to offer up all their 2021 and 2022 drafts.

We have 1 win and the Giants have 2 wins. We have one winnable game against the Dolphins and the Giants have two winnable games against the Dolphins and Redskins.

More than likely we win one more game, giving us 2 wins, and the Giants win one more game giving them 3 wins.

The only scenario where they beat us out is if we win our game against the Dolphins and they lose both of their winnable games against the Dolphins and Redskins, then we both end up with 2 wins and they beat us on weaker strength of schedule.

If each of those winnable games is even then the probability is minimal. It would be 1 in 8 or about 12.5 % chance of happening assuming each winnable game as 50% chance of happening.

WWW LLL WLL LWL LLW WWL WLW LWW.

Only 1 of those is WLL out of 8 possibilities.

We have two winnable games as the Browns suck.
