Could a Team Find Their Way into the Playoffs?

Five teams have clinched a spot in the AFC. In the NFC, the only spot that needs to be determined is the NFC South winner. The sixth seed in the AFC is up for grabs and four teams are vying for it. The San Diego Chargers, the Baltimore Ravens, the Houston Texans, and the Kansas City Chiefs are all in consideration for the final spot.

All the Chargers need to do is win. Knowing that, they’re obviously the favorite. It also helps that they will be going up against Chase Daniel on Sunday instead of Alex Smith. Whoever comes out at the sixth seed by the end of week will have the ability to make a run as the AFC is extremely unpredictable.
