Live NFL playoff picture: Updated chances, projections
We’re down to the final two weeks of the season, and there are four playoff spots (one in the AFC, three in the NFC) and five division titles there for the taking. Plus, the No. 1 seed in the NFC hasn’t been clinched. We’re tracking the closest, most interesting races live during Week 17 (and then again in Week 18). We have you covered through all the swings, big plays and surprises.
We begin with the AFC wild-card picture, where the Chargers punched their ticket Saturday with a win over the Patriots. The Broncos can join them if they beat the Bengals, who are still alive for the final spot in the AFC.
As we head into the final stretch of the NFL regular season, the playoff picture is starting to come into focus. With only a few weeks left, every game becomes crucial for teams vying for a spot in the postseason. Here’s a look at the updated chances and projections for teams in the race:
AFC:
