On Sunday, three teams not only locked up playoff spots but locked up their divisions as well. The New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts win the AFC East and AFC South in the early games while the Denver Broncos beat the San Diego Chargers to clinch the AFC West title for a third straight year.
That means only the AFC North an the two Wild Card spots remain open for the gaggle of teams trying to make it to the postseason. It’s looking like the Cincinnati Bengals will win the AFC North, but the Wild Card teams are just as iffy at the moment. Teams like the Chiefs, Chargers, Steelers and Ravens are all close with the Bills getting a much needed win over the Packers to stay alive.
Here’s a look at the AFC Playoff Picture and what things would look like if the playoffs began today.

There are still two weeks left and a handful of teams alive for the three remaining AFC playoff spots, and it’s looking like this will be one heck of a finish to the season in the NFL.
