Week 16: Pittsburgh Steelers – Dec. 27, 2015 (8:30 p.m.)

2014 Record: 11-5
Head-to-Head Record: 18-24
Last Meeting: Ravens 26 – Steelers 6 (Sept. 11, 2014)

This game could decide the AFC North and have a huge impact on the AFC playoff picture.

In 2014, the Ravens defeated the Steelers at home on Thursday Night Football just three days after they released Ray Rice. People throughout the country were questioning whether the Ravens would be distracted by the release, but the Ravens responded with a defensive beat down in which the Steelers were held to just two field goals and committed three turnovers. It is in December when teams turn to the ground-and-pound game, and this will be another physical bout that could shake up the playoff picture in the AFC.

This will be the second primetime battle between the two rivals, and the final game in Baltimore for the 2015 season. If the Ravens have not won the division by this point, then it will come down to the regular season finale in Cincy.

Next: Week 17
