Week 17 playoff picture / scenarios
2016 NFL playoff picture and scenarios, Week 17: Steelers look to oust Jets while Colts cling to slim hopes



The field for the postseason is essentially set entering the final weekend of the 2015 NFL regular season and only the Pittsburgh Steelers have a realistic chance at climbing into playoff contention in Week 17.

The Indianapolis Colts aren't yet eliminated, but need a tremendous amount of help to sneak in ahead of the Houston Texans. The Colts would need to beat the Tennessee Titans on Sunday with Josh Freeman leading the way at quarterback, hope the Texans lose to the Jaguars and have seven other games go exactly as planned to win the tiebreakers over Houston.

Step one for the Colts was the Denver Broncos beating the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football in Week 16, but Indianapolis still needs all of the following results to also go their way:

Steelers beat the Browns
Broncos beat the Chargers
Falcons beat the Saints
Bills beat the Jets
Dolphins beat the Patriots
Ravens beat the Bengals
Raiders beat the Chiefs
The odds of everything going exactly right for the Colts are tremendously slim.

Pittsburgh's chances of sneaking in are much more simple. After beating the Cleveland Browns earlier in the year, 30-9, the Steelers just need to deal the Browns another loss on Sunday and hope the Buffalo Bills can play spoiler by beating the New York Jets.

The Jets are hot with five consecutive wins, but lost to the Rex Ryan-led Bills in Week 10 and have to travel to Buffalo to even the series to guarantee their place as a wild card team.

Other than the Colts and the Steelers trying to boot the Texans and Jets, the other 10 playoff berths are already clinched, although shuffling can still happen in Week 17. Neither the Denver Broncos nor the Green Bay Packers have locked down division titles and will try to play their way into postseason home games.

All the Broncos have to do is beat the San Diego Chargers at home to earn a first-round bye, but the big divisional showdown of the year is during Sunday Night Football when the Packers and Minnesota Vikings duel for the NFC North title.

If the Vikings win, they will host the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Wild Card round, but if the Packers win it could be the Seahawks traveling to Lambeau Field or an immediate rematch with the Vikings.

With two weeks left to play, these are the current favorites to win the Super Bowl, according to Football Outsiders:

Here are the current standings entering Sunday:

AFC

1. (z) New England Patriots (12-3)
2. (x) Denver Broncos (11-4)
3. (y) Cincinnati Bengals (11-4)
4. Houston Texans (8-7)
5. (x) Kansas City Chiefs (10-5)
6. New York Jets (10-5)

In The Hunt

Pittsburgh Steelers (9-6)Indianapolis Colts (7-8)

NFC

1. (z) Carolina Panthers (14-1)
2. (z) Arizona Cardinals (13-2)
3. (x) Green Bay Packers (10-5)
4. (y) Washington (8-7)
5. (x) Seattle Seahawks (10-5)
6. (x) Minnesota Vikings (10-5)

(z) - First-round bye
(y) - Division winner
(x) - Playoff berth

If Broncos lose who gets the #1 seed, Pats or Bengals? Both would have 9-3 in conference.

I suppose this goes to common games as they never played one another?

With every passing minute, I get more nervous that the Steelers will be checking into a KC hotel next weekend.

I agree, but Denver sure is trying. 4 turnovers in the 1st half. That's as bad as it gets.
