With just hours to go before the final NFL postseason matchups are determined, the playoff picture still has a few things that are up in the air. Heading into Week 17, there are still three playoff spots up for grabs including two in the AFC.
The Ravens and Steelers are fighting for the AFC North division crown. Pittsburgh needs a win over Cincinnati, along with a Cleveland upset over Baltimore in order to make the playoffs. The Ravens will make the playoffs with either a win over the Browns, or a Steelers loss to the Bengals.
All eyes will be on the AFC South as the Colts and Titans square off on Sunday Night Football for the final AFC playoff spot. The winner will advance to the postseason, while the losing team will be eliminated.
The Vikings and Eagles are fighting for the last NFC playoff spot. Minnesota will make the playoffs if they can get a win against the Bears. The Eagles need a win over the Redskins along with a Vikings loss.
