Thrilling games were played across the NFL in Week 16, starting on Thursday night with the Seattle Seahawks’ overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams and into the weekend.
The NFL playoff picture came into focus as well with more teams being eliminated from contention and the main players entering the spotlight.
The AFC’s postseason bracket is foggy at best. There is only one team that clinched a berth going into Week 16 and that was the Denver Broncos. There are five teams with at least 11 wins and six teams with at least 10 wins.
By the end of Sunday night, the New England Patriots were the second team to clinch a playoff spot in the AFC.
The Detroit Lions’ close loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers meant they were living on a prayer to get into the playoffs. It also meant the Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers clinched berths. The Seahawks, Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams are also in as of Week 16.
