Selection, TV info for Saturday’s game

On December 22, 2024By Littum

The Baltimore Ravens is hosted by Pittsburgh Steelers in a Week 16 showdown that could ultimately decide the winner of the AFC North.

The Steelers (10-4) can wrap up their first division title since 2020 with a win. They are currently leading Ravens by one game in the AFC North standings, but also beat them head-to-head in Week 11. A season sweep of the series would allow Pittsburgh to win the head-to-head tiebreaker, which would extend their two-game lead in division insurmountable.

With that in mind, John Harbaugh’s Ravens can play with a little extra urgency on Saturday. A win would tie them with the Steelers atop the division and give Baltimore a huge chance to overtake their longtime rival during the final few weeks of the season.

Lamar Jackson would probably also like to get revenge in this matchup. He has struggled during his career against the Steelers, posting just a 2-5 record in seven starts and posting a 66.7 passer rating.

Can Jackson finally get a good game against the Steelers, or will Mike Tomlin’s defense continue to be one of the toughest in the NFL?

USA TODAY Sports will track the Ravens vs. The Steelers game and the state of the AFC North division race on Saturday. Stay tuned for the latest score updates and highlights from the competition.
