No, now the Steelers have a VERY slight chance. The Packers however, have a pretty good chance of keeping the wild card spot because they have the advantage over Dallas, and and the next two games can be considered a given as the Seahawks are <.500 and the Cards will most likely rest the starters as they have clinched their division title. In 2009, the Green Bay Packers made the playoffs and lost in the Wild Card game to the Arizona Cardinals. The Steelers did not make the playoffs.
