It's Week 17. End of the road for 20 teams. End of the preliminary stage for a dozen others. Who's who? Well, some of that remains TBD. While many playoff situations were settled last weekend -- like the Lions and Cowboys tanking, and the Chiefs winning the division -- much is still up for grabs this weekend. Not only wild-card spots in both conferences, but also seeding. This week always brings out the spreadsheet monger in all of us, as we try to decipher the complexities of postseason scenarios. For example, take a gander at the Panthers-

Falcons blurb below. Before you roll your eyes at all the ifs ands or buts dominating sports airwaves at this time of year, try to remember that, every once in a while, all the ducks line up (in a row, right?) for some Damon Huard-led team to make it to the playoffs.

E.J. Gaines and Kelvin Benjamin are both working their way through the week. At this point it’s looking good for both players to be in the lineup on Sunday at Miami.
 
After Thursday’s practice, head coach Sean McDermott was asked about what kind of progress E.J. Gaines has made in his return from a knee injury, suffered in the first game against the Dolphins.
 
“He looks like he’s ready to go,” said McDermott.
 
That’s welcome news knowing that Shareece Wright remains in the concussion protocol. Gaines practiced fully on Thursday.
 
Meanwhile Kelvin Benjamin is making his way through the week. After sitting out Wednesday, Benjamin participated in practice Thursday.
 
“Similar to last week. He practiced today and did some good things,” said McDermott. “We’ll get a better feel tomorrow.”
 
Here’s a look at Buffalo’s injury report.
