After a week of hype it is finally game day. The biggest game in the AFC is the (10-3) Patriots against the (11-2) Steelers at 4:25pm in Pittsburgh.

Live coverage on Sports Radio 92.9 The Ticket begins with the pregame show at 1:30pm.

What's at stake for the Patriots: A win gives the Pats the AFC division title and puts them back as the #1 seed in the AFC with two games to play.

What's at stake for the Steelers: A win clinches a first round bye. And, if they win and the Jaguars lose, the Steelers are guaranteed the #1 AFC seed.
