Pittsburgh Steelers vs Atlanta Falcons Live Stream: Watch NFL 2014 Football Online (CBS TV Schedule, Preview)
The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Atlanta Falcons will clash in Week 15 of the NFL 2014 regular season in a game packed with Playoff implications. Both teams are fighting for the lives to get into the postseason, and how they do over the final three weeks will determine whether they make it or not. Today's massive game will start at 1 p.m. ET and takes place from the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia. The game can be watched on TV on the CBS network or online through live stream (details below).
The 5-8 Falcons amazingly still have a chance at the Playoffs, however, surely they cannot make it if they lose 10 games in the season. The way the NFC South division has gone this season - with none of the four teams anywhere near a winning record - it could actually happen!
The Steelers have as much at stake today, and know they cannot afford to lose. They should be favorites coming into the game, and oppositely will be aiming to at least hit the 10 wins mark before the regular season ends. If they win out they can make 11-5, which would see them home safe and into the postseason.

Coming into Week 15 the NFL Playoffs picture remains up in the air, and there is still a huge amount up for grabs for many teams.
In the AFC, the New England Patriots currently occupy the number 1 seed placing, which would secure them home field advantage all the way through to the Super Bowl game. However, they are being chased by the Denver Broncos, and with both of those teams on 10-3 there is still everything to play for and the race could go all the way to the final week of the season.
The Indianapolis Colts are in the 3rd seed position in the AFC with a record of 9-4, which keeps them marginally above the Cincinnati Bengals in 4th who are 8-4-1. Taking up the final two Wild Card spots right now are the Pittsburgh Steelers who are 8-5 and the San Diego Chargers, who have the same record.
But the Steelers and the Chargers have no room for mistakes, as there are a stream of other teams chasing them for the Wild Card spots should they slip up. The Baltimore Ravens are in the 7th seed position right now, but are also 8-5, where as the Houston Texans, Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs are all lined up on 7-6.
Meanwhile, in the NFC, the Arizona Cardinals have managed to snap their losing streak to just about hold onto the number 1 seed position. They are 11-3, but with the Packers coming into this weekend on 10-3 and in the number 2 seed position, they will be able to pull up right alongside the Cardinals with a win.
The Philadelphia Eagles are currently in the 3rd seed spot on 9-4, and the Atlanta Falcons take 4th seed position despite being on a lowly 5-8 thanks to the horribly poor NFC South where no team is even close to .500.
The 5th and 6th seedings are currently occupied by the Seattle Seahawks and the Detroit Lions who are both on 9-4. Still in the running are the 9-4 Dallas Cowboys, 7-5 San Francisco 49ers, 6-7 Minnesota Vikings and 5-8 New Orleans Saints.
