AFC wild-card standings: How Texans-Chargers Saturday game impacts divisional races, playoff picture
Both Houston and Los Angeles are battling for playoff positioning in the AFC. Here's a look at the conference's postseason picture.
Eleven of the 14 playoff spots have been secured and six teams are in the race for the last three. Here’s an updated NFL playoff picture.
The NFL playoff picture has largely taken shape, with 11 of the 14 playoff berths clinched. And the other three playoff berths could all be clinched by Sunday. We already know that six of the NFC playoff teams will be the Seahawks, Bears, Eagles, 49ers, Rams and Packers. The seventh NFC playoff team will be either the Panthers or Buccaneers.
Notable odds: The Colts are on the brink of elimination, with just a 2% shot at the playoffs, according to the Athletic, following Monday's loss to the 49ers. A Texans victory on Saturday vs. the Chargers will end the Colts' season.
