Current 2013 NFL Football Playoff Scenarios For Week 17 (12/27)
Team By Team NFL Playoff Scenarios For The Final Week of the Season

It’s week 17 of the 2013 NFL regular season, and there are still a number of playoff seeding’s that have yet to be locked in. Most of the playoff teams have been set, with seeding’s having yet to be determined. There are also two NFC divisional games that will determine who will be making the playoffs and who will be watching the playoffs from home.

NFC Conference Teams Playoff Scenarios

NFC East Division Playoff Scenarios:

Philadelphia Eagles (9-6) – Philadelphia blew out Chicago 54-11 last Sunday night. With Dallas also winning, sets up a winner-take-all scenario on Sunday night when the Eagles take on the Cowboys in Dallas.

Dallas Cowboys (9-7) – Dallas got a late touchdown pass from Tony Romo to Demarco Murray to give Dallas the 24-23 win over Washington. Dallas will play Philadelphia on Sunday night to determine the NFC East division champion. Dallas may be without the services of Tony Romo, as it is reported that he is out for the season with a back injury. It has not been confirmed by Dallas officials as of yet.

New York Giants (6-9) – Eliminated from playoff contention

Washington Redskins (3-12) – Eliminated from playoff contention

NFC North Division Playoff Scenarios:

Chicago Bears (8-7) – The Bears blew their chance to clinch the NFC North on Sunday, getting blown out by Philadelphia 54-11. They will now host Green Bay with the NFC North division title on the line.

Green Bay Packers (7-7-1) – Green Bay lost in wintery conditions to Pittsburgh, yet luckily Chicago lost against Philadelphia. Green Bay will travel to Soldier Field on Sunday to take on the Chicago Bears to determine the NFC North division champion,

Detroit Lions (7-8) – Eliminated from playoff contention.

Minnesota Vikings (4-10-1) – Eliminated from playoff contention

NFC South Division Playoff Scenarios:

Carolina Panthers (11-4) – The Panthers took over 1st in the NFC North, and currently hold the #2 seed in the NFC.  They can clinch the division and #2 seed with a victory over Atlanta this Sunday. If Seattle should lose and San Francisco win, they would be the #1 seed in the NFC, based on the head to head win over the 49ers.

New Orleans Saints (10-5) – The Saints were beat by the Panthers last Sunday, and are now in control of their own destiny. They will play Tampa Bay this Sunday, and should they win, they’ll be in the playoffs as the #6 seed.  If they win and Carolina loses, they could claim the NFC South division as well as the #2 seed.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-11) – Eliminated from playoff contention.

Atlanta Falcons (4-11) – Eliminated from playoff contention. 

NFC West Division Playoff Scenarios:

Seattle Seahawks (12-3) – The Seahawks lost their first home game in quite some time, losing to Arizona 17-10, and with another loss, could put their #1 seed and division title at risk. Seattle needs to win at home against St. Louis on Sunday to win their division, and clinch the #1 seed.

San Francisco 49ers (11-4) – The 49ers currently hold the #5 seed and have clinched a playoff berth by winning over Atlanta on Monday. If they win at Arizona this weekend, and Seattle loses, they would claim the NFC West title and the #2 seed.

Arizona Cardinals (10-5) – Arizona got a big win at Seattle last Sunday, yet need a win and a New Orleans loss to grab the #6 seed. They will host the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday, so it will be no easy task.

St. Louis Rams (7-8) – Eliminated from playoff contention

AFC Teams Current Playoff Scenarios

AFC East Team Scenarios:

New England Patriots (11-4) – The Patriots clinched the AFC East title this past weekend with Miami losing at Buffalo. They then went on to roll in Baltimore 41-7, getting a little bit of revenge for the playoff loss last season. They need a win or a loss by Cincinnati and Indianapolis to clinch the #2 seed. They could grab the #1 seed with a win and a loss by Denver to Oakland.

Miami Dolphins (8-7) – Miami lost last Sunday, yet still owns the #6 seed due to Baltimore losing to New England. It’s a crazy scenario however; as they need to win and need a Baltimore loss or a win combined with a San Diego win. They will host the New York Jets this Sunday, whom they beat handily earlier back in week 13, 23-3.

New York Jets (7-8) – Eliminated from playoff contention

Buffalo Bills (6-9) – Eliminated from playoff contention

AFC North Team Scenarios:

Cincinnati Bengals (10-5) – Cincinnati clinched the AFC North this past Sunday with a win over Minnesota and Baltimore losing to New England.  They will host the Ravens this Sunday, and have a chance to help eliminate the Ravens. They can clinch a first round bye with a win and a New England loss.

Baltimore Ravens (8-7) – The Ravens were blown out at home by the Patriots last Sunday 41-7 and will take on the Bengals at Cincinnati this Sunday. In order for the Ravens to get in to the playoffs, they need a win combined with a San Diego loss or tie, or a win and a Miami loss or tie. They can also clinch with Pittsburgh, Miami, and San Diego losing.

Pittsburgh Steelers (7-8) – Pittsburgh’s playoff hopes are very slim yet are surprisingly still alive after last Sunday’s win at Green Bay. Pittsburgh needs to win combined with San Diego, Miami, and Baltimore losing. Crazier things have happened, and this Steeler team is playing some very good ball as of late. They will be hosting division rival Cleveland this Sunday.

Cleveland Browns (4-11) – Eliminated from playoff contention

AFC South Team Scenarios:

Indianapolis Colts (10-5) – The Colts clinched the division a few weeks ago, and can earn the #2 seed with a win and a loss by both New England and Cincinnati.

Tennessee Titans (6-9) – Eliminated from playoff contention.

Jacksonville Jaguars (4-11) – Eliminated from playoff contention.

Houston Texans (2-13) – Eliminated from playoff contention.

AFC West Team Scenarios:

Denver Broncos (12-3) – The Broncos clinched the AFC West last Sunday winning at Houston and with Kansas City losing. They currently hold the #1 seed in the AFC, and can clinch the #1 seed with a win or a New England loss. If they lose and New England wins, they will have the #2 seed.

Kansas City Chiefs (11-4) – Kansas City is locked in at the #5 seed after losing at home to Indianapolis last Sunday.

San Diego Chargers (8-7) – The Chargers can grab the #6 seed with a win combined with a Miami loss or tie and a Baltimore loss or tie.

Oakland Raiders (4-11) – Eliminated from playoff contention.
