Week 17 NFL Playoff Picture and Scenarios
By:

Only one playoff seeding (#5 KC) has been locked as the NFL heads into the final week of the season. Four AFC teams are competing for the final playoff slot, and seven NFC clubs are still battling for four playoff spots....

 
Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

Looks like MIA and Balt are going to lose....

If San Diego can win, they'd get the 6th seed. But they are playing KC. That's a tough game.

But I really hope SD gets the 6th seed; they can knock off Denver on the road. I seriousy think they are one of the few team who can do this. But they gotta beat KC first. Ugh.
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

Go take a look at who is inactive for KC and tell me that's a tough game for SD.

Here you go so you don't have too look far

I'd imagine Eric Berry, Justin Houston, Brandon Flowers and Sean Smith will also see no action or limited snaps.
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

Good, I'm liking the way its starting to shape up...
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

WOW - Miami MUST be regretting beating us - they haven't played well since. They can now ponder it on the golf course.
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

If Pats and Chargers take care of business, I believe we'll have SD @ Cinci and KC @ Indy. Chiefs-Colts should be a pretty good game, though I wouldn't be shocked if the Colts rolled.
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

chiefs and Bengals will win. Chiefs come here to Boston and lose to us

if that is the case the bengals would come here...pats play the highest seed.
They will play cincy
 
Christmas has come for Pats fans (initially) Steelers, Ravens and Doofins. ....

ELIMINATED FROM THE PLAYOFFS!!!......WHHOOOOOOOOO....What A BEAUTIFUL DAY!
 
Re: Ok, Playoff Seeding starting to shape up...

Both the Colts and Cincy will win, sending Cincy to the Pats and Indy to Denver.
 
Re: Christmas has come for Pats fans (initially) Steelers, Ravens and Doofins. ....

My three biggest teams that I hate the most. I'm very happy about today. Pats clinch a bye and a week to get healthy, and my 3 most hated teams go golfing.

Would rather see Tannehill in the mix instead of rivers and I know everyone around here pisses their pants when the Pats play the Ravens but all that matters is Pittsburgh is OUT!!!!!!
 
Giving credit to Bill Simmons and patchick

Patchick accurately noted a few weeks ago:

And in related news, nobody wants the final AFC Wild Card berth. It's going to end up on the clearance rack, marked down to an 8-8 record.

OK, so it was 9-7, but she definitely had the right idea.

And Bill Simmons wrote this week:

My prediction: Pittsburgh blows out The Secretly Tanking Browns, Baltimore barely loses in Cincy and Miami shockingly falls to the J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS. Hey, there's life for the Steelers yet! We head into the late games with Pittsburgh's fans banking on Kansas City's second string to come through in San Diego … only to watch in horror as Phil Rivers fist-pumps, finger-points and psycho-grins his way to a convincing victory that will inevitably be blacked out in Southern California because Roger Goodell hates everyone who lives in Los Angeles. Your 2013 no. 6 seed in the AFC, defying 6-to-1 odds against it happening … the Chargers of San Diego! Could you talk me into taking Phil Rivers in Cincy in Round 1? Actually … yes! YES YOU COULD!
