Why? If one assumes that Pitt drop one, and SD go down to Indy (as you have),. Then the chiefs beating SD plus one (either the Giants or the bengals, it won't matter in this scenario) will see them make it, through their then superior Conf. record over the steelers. Pitt would be 7-5, the chiefs would be 8-4. Or 9-4 if they roll the bengals.
