It's Week 15 and there are playoff-clinching scenarios in place.
There are also elimination scenarios that potentially affect the Steelers today, even though they're not playing until Monday night.
And one of those hits especially close to home.
Following is a capsule look at a few of today's most significant matchups from the Steelers' perspective:
Ravens (6-7) at Bengals (4-9), 1 p.m.
Cincinnati would be eliminated from playoff contention with a loss to Baltimore.
It's the second meeting between the teams in a span of three games in the wake of the Bengals' 32-14 win over the Ravens on Thanksgiving night in Baltimore. Quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns in the initial meeting, his first game back after suffering a toe injury on Sept. 14. Cincinnati is 12-9
