The Ravens clinched an AFC playoff berth after a convincing 34-17 win over the Steelers at M&T Bank Stadium. Baltimore and Pittsburgh are tied atop the division at 10-5, and the Steelers would win if they finished with the same record thanks to a tiebreaker featuring common opponents.

Both teams will turn around on four days of rest as the Ravens will face the Texans, while the Steelers will face the Chiefs, with both games being played on Christmas Day.

With Week 16 complete, here’s an instant analysis of the big win.
