Steelers-Ravens matchup set to determine winner of AFC North

The Cleveland Browns defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 13-6 on Sunday, keeping the Baltimore Ravens’ playoff hopes alive while adding more stakes to Week 18’s matchup between the Steelers and Ravens.

That game will now determine the winner of the AFC North. If the Steelers had beaten the Browns, they would have secured the division title and playoff berth, now they will battle the ravens for a spot in the postseason.

Sunday’s game was the first of two that the Steelers will play without star wide receiver DK Metcalf, who was suspended last week for swinging at a Detroit Lions fan in Week 16.

For Pittsburgh, Aaron Rodgers had 168 passing yards while completing 21 of his 39 attempts. He finished with zero touchdowns and zero interceptions.

Cleveland’s QB play wasn’t much better, as Shedeur Sanders had 186 passing yards with one touchdown and two interceptions while completing 17 of his 23 attempts.

The long-time rivalry between the Ravens and Steelers will feel even stronger next week, as the winner secures a spot in the playoffs.
