Welcome to a rare Saturday edition of the Week 16 grades. The NFL was kind enough to give everyone an early Christmas gift in the form of a holiday doubleheader consisting of Bengals-Steelers and Bills-Chargers.
Each of these games carry a significant impact on the AFC playoff picture as the wild card picture is as close and jumbled as it has ever been. The Steelers were able to keep their hopes of making it into the postseason alive with a blowout win over the Bengals.
The Billswho traveled to Los Angeles, still hold out hope of winning the AFC East, but will need to win out in order for that to even be possible.
We’ll cover both of these games with our grades for both Saturday contests below.
Pittsburgh 34, Cincinnati 11
