The Cincinnati Bengals secured a vital 19-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, led by quarterback Joe Burrow, who completed 37 of 46 passes for 277 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. This win marked the Bengals' fifth consecutive victory, improving their record to 9-8 and keeping their playoff hopes alive. The Bengals need favorable outcomes in other games on Sunday to clinch a playoff spot.

Despite the loss, the Steelers have already secured a wild card position. Russell Wilson threw for 148 yards and a touchdown but could not lead a comeback in the final moments. The Bengals' first-quarter performance set the tone, with Burrow connecting with Ja'Marr Chase for a touchdown.

Lamar Jackson led the Baltimore Ravens to a decisive 35-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns, securing the AFC North title for the second consecutive year. With this win, Baltimore finishes the regular season at 12-5 and will host a playoff game against either the Los Angeles Chargers or Pittsburgh Steelers. The Ravens overcame a two-game deficit to the Steelers by winning their last four games.

The Browns, finishing a disappointing season at 3-14, struggled offensively with quarterbacks Bailey Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Zappe's interception was returned for a touchdown by rookie Nate Wiggins, marking a rough end to their campaign.

Jackson showcased his elite skills, throwing two touchdown passes and achieving remarkable season statistics, including over 4,000 passing yards and 41 touchdowns. He also rushed for 915 yards, making him the first quarterback to achieve both milestones in a single season. However, concerns arose regarding the health of Pro Bowl receiver Zay Flowers, who injured his knee during the game.

In another matchup, Joe Burrow's Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 19-17, keeping their playoff hopes alive. Burrow passed for 277 yards and a touchdown, while Cade York contributed four field goals. This victory marked the Bengals' fifth consecutive win, with Burrow playing at a high level and leading the team into playoff contention.
