Wild Card: San Diego Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers

It really came down to a toss up between the AFC North and AFC West runner-ups in my opinion.

I could see both the Chiefs and the Bengals getting back to the playoffs with their defenses this year. However the Chargers and Steelers have solid defenses as well…and they also have Philip Rivers and Ben Roesthlisberger. I’ll take those two over Andy Dalton and Alex Smith.
