It came down to the wire in South Beach, but the Buffalo Bills reigned victorious on Sunday Night Football.
And thanks to an upset victory from the Titans earlier in the day, Pittsburgh is also headed to the playoffs.
Now the two will face off on Sunday afternoon of Wildcard Weekend:
Playoffs Are Set
The Tennessee Titans made sure the Steelers got into the playoffs Sunday by knocking off the Jacksonville Jaguars, 28-20. That clinched a spot for the Steelers, who won Saturday, 17-10, in Baltimore in the postseason.
Buffalo rallied from a 14-7 halftime deficit to defeat Miami, 21-14, and win the AFC East and clinch the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs.
That victory also meant the Steelers would enter the AFC playoffs as the No. 7 seed and play at Buffalo at 1 p.m. Sunday. Dale Lolley – Steelers PR
Pittsburgh escaped having to play the defending champions on Saturday night in Kansas City, but the team isn't catching a break with the Bills.
No team in the league is hotter than Buffalo, who have now won five in a row and worked themselves into the second seed and winners of the AFC East.
Pittsburgh will need to play their best game of the year to take down the Bills, but as Coach Tomlin would say:
"We can't live in our fears."
