The season is winding down and the AFC playoff race is getting spicy! Here we go.
AFC West:
Oakland Raiders clinched the AFC West title
AFC East:
Patriots clinch the AFC East with win vs NYJ Wk 15
Jets clinch the AFC East with a win vs NE and one win vs KC/LAR AND NE loses to NYJ AND loss to MIA. (Jets would own tiebreaker then)
AFC South:
Too many scenarios to list here since Jacksonville and Indianapolis are tied at 10-3. They face each other Week 17. As of now, Jaguars hold the tiebreaker.
AFC North:
Steelers have clinched the division
#1 seed: Oakland Raiders clinch #1 seed with win vs CAR or PIT AND JAC loss Week 15, 16 or 17 AND IND loss Week 15, 16 or 17
Way too many teams in contention and too close to each other to map it out right now. Should have a clearer picture next week.
