Who is in the conversation?

While listening to the Steelers-Vikings game at work tonight, Vikings commentator Paul Allen said that because of their games with the Steelers, Minnesota was "definitely in the conversation". I don't know what the conversation was, but apparently the Steelers are the rubric for getting into the conversation. Let's find out who else is in the conversation, tam by team.
