The Pittsburgh Steelers have six games left on their regular-season schedule and while we still need to make our predictions this week, first we wanted to check in with Google's Gemini AI and let it make the prediction to see what removing all the bias and nuance from the picks would do to the projections. In the end, it turns out even AI cannot escape the pull of Mike Tomlin's streak.

Here's how the AI picks went.

Week 13: vs. Buffalo Bills (7–4)

Prediction: Loss

Rationale: The Bills are a top-tier AFC contender. While playing at Acrisure Stadium gives the Steelers a defensive edge, Buffalo's offense is likely too potent for a Steelers team that has struggled to score consistently in shootouts.

Record: 6–6

Week 14: at Baltimore Ravens (6–5)

Prediction: Loss

Rationale: This is a crucial battle for the AFC North lead. Baltimore is tough at home (M&T Bank Stadium), and the Steelers are currently 2–3 on the road. In a physical division rivalry, the home team usually has the slight upper hand.

Record: 6–7

Week 15: vs. Miami Dolphins (4–7)

Prediction: Win

Rationale: This is a "get right" game. The Dolphins have struggled on the road (0–4 away in some stats), and Pittsburgh performs significantly better at home (4–2). The Steelers' defense should be able to stifle a floundering Miami offense in the cold.

Record: 7–7

Week 16: at Detroit Lions (7–4)

Prediction: Loss

Rationale: Ford Field is one of the hardest places to play in the league right now. The Lions are a physical, high-motor team that matches up well against the Steelers' strengths. It is hard to see Pittsburgh's offense keeping pace indoors against Detroit.

Record: 7–8

Week 17: at Cleveland Browns (3–8)

Prediction: Win

Rationale: The Browns are having a rough season. Even though AFC North road games are never guaranteed, the Steelers will likely be fighting for their playoff lives here. Mike Tomlin's teams historically win these "must-have" games against lower-ranked division rivals.

Record: 8–8

Week 18: vs. Baltimore Ravens (6–5)

Prediction: Win

Rationale: With the season on the line in January at home, the Steelers tend to find a way. Expect a gritty, low-scoring defensive battle where Pittsburgh splits the season series with Baltimore to finish the regular season on a high note.

Record: 9–8
