Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers

Live from Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 

It all comes down to this! The AFC North title and a playoff berth are on the line when four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers (9-7) host four-time All-Pro Derrick Henry and the Baltimore Ravens (8-8) in NFL Game 272 – the Week 18 edition. The Ravens-Steelers winner captures the AFC North championship, earns the No. 4 seed in the AFC Playoffs, and will host a game on NFL Wild Card Weekend.

Ravens-Steelers is the final game of the 20th season of NBC's Sunday Night Football, which culminates with the presentation of Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8. On Sunday, the Steelers aim to win the AFC North for the first time since 2020, while the Ravens play for their third consecutive division title.

Baltimore and Pittsburgh meet for the 65th time (including postseason) on Sunday night, with the Steelers holding a 37-27 advantage in the series. Sunday marks the 11th Ravens-Steelers game on Sunday Night Football, making it the most-played AFC matchup in the NBC SNF package. 

This is the 40th meeting between head coaches Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh, with Tomlin winning 22 of the prior 39, including a 27-22 Steelers win in this season's first meeting on Dec. 7 in Baltimore.
