NFL announces full schedule for crucial Week 18: Saturday doubleheader, Pittsburgh conclusion

The NFL has officially set the board for the final weekend of the regular season, and, for some, Week 18 is shaping up less like a farewell and more like a stress test.

When is Steelers vs Ravens Week 18?

The league has confirmed ahead of Monday Night Football (Rams-Falcons) that the season will close in Pittsburgh, where the Steelers host the Ravens in a prime time, winner-takes-everything finale. And a certain Mr Rodgers has already made his stance clear. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC, with the AFC North title and a home playoff game on the line.

Before that, the weekend opens with a nationally televised Saturday doubleheader, followed by a packed Sunday slate that funnels all remaining tension toward one final game. Let’s take a look...
