Pittsburgh Steelers: Week 15 NFL Power Rankings (#11)

Last week: 7 (-4) Record: 9-4 Net points per drive: 0.11 (13th) DVOA: -0.5% (15th) Weighted DVOA: 2.1% (13th) If they can win week 16 against the Bengals, they should still be in the playoffs regardless, even after a loss to the Chargers at home.
