The NFL playoff picture is beginning to take shape and the AFC Wild Card race is going to be a thriller that could go down to the wire. 

On Monday night, the Philadelphia Eagles and Carolina Panthers wrap up Week 10 of the NFL season, but all of the AFC teams have already completed their games this week.
