How to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens game in Week 18 of the NFL schedule

It's Week 18 of the NFL schedule, and it's winner takes all between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens in an AFC North "Sunday Night Football" matchup at Acrisure Stadium. Here's how you can watch the game.

Whoever wins the game will secure the AFC North title and earn a home game in the playoffs. The loser of the game will be eliminated from playoff contention. 

Pittsburgh (9-7) enters the contest on the heels of a 13-6 loss to the Cleveland Browns last week. If Pittsburgh had beaten Cleveland, it would have won the AFC North title and eliminated Baltimore from postseason contention.

With wide receiver DK Metcalf suspended after getting into an altercation with a fan during the team's Week 16 game against the Detroit Lions, Pittsburgh's offense in Cleveland was limited to 291 yards of total offense.

The Steelers' T.J. Watt is expected to play against the Ravens on Sunday. The star edge rusher hasn't played since the Dec. 7 win against the Ravens after he suffered a partially collapsed lung during a dry needling treatment.

"I feel pretty good, honestly," Watt told the media on Friday. "Don't know if I could have said that a week ago, but I feel really good, feel really confident about the week of practice and excited to play." 

Baltimore (8-8) heads into tonight's game riding high with a 41-24 road win vs. the Green Bay Packers last week. With their season on the line and missing star quarterback Lamar Jackson, Ravens running back Derrick Henry ran wild with 36 carries for 216 yards and four touchdowns.

Jackson said he will play on Sunday after missing the game at Green Bay because of a back injury. The star quarterback was a full participant in practices this week.
