Steelers 13, Ravens 9

Steelers sweep Ravens. Steelers win AFC North. Steelers wrap up #2 seed in AFC playoffs. Steelers control their own destiny in terms of the #1 seed in the AFC.

But the Steelers did get a lucky break when the referee ruled that Santonio Holmes scored a touchdown on 3rd and goal late in the fourth quarter. In my opinion, it was too close to overturn the original call, which would have left the Steelers with fourth and inches and coach Mike Tomlin with a major decision: Go for the win or kick a chip-shot field goal to tie and send the game into overtime.

With the prediction "loss," The Steelyard falls to 9-5 this year and 35-12 all-time.
