And while the current NFL playoff picture is pretty clear in AFC (six of the seven teams have clinched spots) and the NFC (two spots are available), that means there are still squads that are very much alive heading into the penultimate week of regular-season action.

During a wild Week 17, the Colts choked away any chance at a playoff berth by losing to the Giants.  Heading into the final week of the season, 12 of the NFL's 14 playoff spots have been clinched with one still up for grabs in each conference.

The Browns lost to the Dolphins but improved their draft positioning entering Week 18, which could lead to the team taking one of the top 2025 QBs. Cleveland fell to 3-13 and could wind up with a top-3 pick in April's draft depending on the outcome in the season finale.
