The Pittsburgh Steelers enter the playoffs on a four-game losing streak, facing a tough challenge against the Baltimore Ravens, who have won their last four games. Can Mike Tomlin lead the Steelers to an upset victory?
Jaylen Warren (30) - The Canadian Press Mike Tomlin hasn’t won a playoff game since 2016. It hasn’t been for a lack of trying.

Favourites of nine or more points have gone 15-1 straight up and 13-3 against the spread on Wild Card Weekend. While the Steelers have lost four straight games, the Ravens have won and covered four straight games entering the playoffs.
