Steelers only get in if they win and the Chargers, Ravens and Dolphins all lose. Pretty simple for them.

So basically (for the most part, a little more to it), the teams down the list must have all teams above them lose to get in and they must win themselves.
Currently this is looking most likely with Bengals up 10 and Jets up 7 looking to go up 10.
See it was the Miami win SD win that confused me. I didn't know why Baltimore wasnt in if they win. But it is because it goes to a 3 way tiebreaker instead of 2 way tiebreaker.
The Chiefs are going to gift wrap the game for the Chargers. Check out this Inactives list for KC:

I'm fine with that. I'm starting Phillip Rivers in my Fantasy Championship game, and I picked up Nile Davis as well. Hopefully they both do well.
Back to back personal foul penalties on the Bengals just put the Ravens at midfield. Baltimore's not done yet. The penalties were on Vontaze Burfict and Adam Jones. Hard to believe, but true. 
Ravens done. Miami likely done.
Down to SD and Pittsburgh. SD in if they win, otherwise it's Pittsburgh.

NFL would be so interesting (more than it already is, naturally) if teams were allowed to make trades, only tomorrow from 9am-5pm central. Just 8 hours of mayhem.
And the Houston Texans are now on the clock. They clinched the #1 overall pick by losing to the Titans. QB, Clowney, trade down, or all of the above? Should be interesting and it could be a quick turnaround if they play it right.
