Put it on the board!

The Pittsburgh Steelers have managed to stay alive despite having once again scored barely over two touchdowns, a 16-13 victory over the Baltimore Ravens that kept their drive towards the postseason still with the potential for a happy ending.
They'll be facing the Cleveland Browns on January 8, and already, their opponent has given them some perfect motivating bulletin board material that they'll want to shove right back in their faces. According to star defensive end Myles Garrett, they'll be looking to ruin Pittsbugh's season.
"It's huge for us. Nobody wants to end on an 'L.' We play to win, always," Garrett said. "It doesn't matter our chances. We know they have some chances left, so we're going to try to erase those if we can."
"We'd love to do that," Garrett continued of ending Pittsburgh's postseason chase. "We consider them our rivals. Divisionally, if we can't make it, we're definitely going to make sure those guys can't. We're going to do everything in our power. "Much respect to them for being in that position, but we live for times like this."
You can bet that the Steelers will be looking to avenge their 48-37 loss to the Browns in the AFC Wild Card Round in 2020.
Should the Browns beat the Steelers, Pittsburgh's postseason chase would be over. However, should Pittsburgh beat Cleveland, their postseason odds would increase to 34 percent, and they would immediately begin scoreboard watching while praying for some outside help. The Browns, who are at 7-8 and officially eliminated from postseason contention, would love to play spoiler.
