Sunday's action could reshape NFL playoff field. Here's how: https://t.co/R1e7rt0SKi

AFC
1. Oakland Raiders (8-2): AFC West leader. They currently own top seed based on strength of victory.
2. New England Patriots (8-2): AFC East leader. They can reclaim No. 1 seed Sunday since they can improve conference record, while Oakland cannot.
3. Houston Texans (6-4): AFC South leader. They will retain division lead win or lose.
4. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5): AFC North leader. They will drop out of division lead if the Baltimore Ravens, who beat Pittsburgh in Week 9, defeat the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
5. Kansas City Chiefs (7-3): Wild card No. 1. If they beat the Broncos and Oakland loses to the Carolina Panthers, K.C. reclaims AFC West lead.
6. Denver Broncos (7-3): Wild card No. 2. They can move up to fifth seed by beating Chiefs. A loss and Miami Dolphins win would drop Denver from the field.

Who to root for week 12:

 

Bears over Titans (hoping HOU takes the division, TEN goes into their BYE at 5-7)

 

49ers over Dolphins (Fish fall to 6-5)

 

Bengals over Ravens (we own the tie breaker Crows fall to 5-6)

 

Texans over Chargers (HOU leads the south at 7-4 while SAN Diego losses all hope at 4-7)

 

Panthers over Raiders (NFC win, Raiders go to 8-3)

 

Jets over Patriots (!@#$ the pats, will win division anyways and Jets are not a threat)

 

Chiefs over Broncos (positive either way but I believe the Broncos to be a more dangerous team, Chiefs take over West at 8-3 while Broncos sit at 7-4)

 

And if course, as always, Bills over Jags moving us to 6-5.

This will obviously hurt the Panthers' chances this Sunday:

Panthers put Michael Oher on IR, won’t have Luke Kuechly or Ryan Kalil against Raiders

A Raiders win wouldn't be the worst thing that could happen in this scenario. They can, and should, win that division. Here's to hoping the Broncos and Chiefs beat each other to a pulp and elminate themselves

NOW can we please put this crazy talk of the Bills making the playoffs to bed!? Geezus H Ch**t, when you struggle to beat the Jags, AT HOME, you shouldn't be ANYWHERE near the playoffs.

 

KC, Houston and Baltimore all beat the Jags by less than a score. All are firmly in the playoff hunt.
