As for the AFC, only one team has clinched a spot so far and that's the .With four spots now clinched, that means there are 10 spots still up in the air.

(AFC North Champion) At this point, the computer is feeling pretty confident that the Ravens (11-3) are going to end up with the top seed in the AFC. Even if they lose to the 49ers on Christmas, they can go a long way toward wrapping up the No. 1 seed by beating the in Week 17. Remaining schedule:at 49ers, Dolphins, .2. (AFC East Champion) The Dolphins (10-4) have yet to beat a team with a winning record, which could make things interesting over the final three weeks because they'll be playing three teams that currently have a winning record. Despite that fact, the computer still loves the Dolphins' chances of winning the AFC East. According to our projection, Miami has a 73.8% chance of winning the division while Buffalo's chances are sitting at just 26.2%.Remaining schedule: Cowboys, at Ravens, .3. (AFC West Champion) has never had to play a road playoff game in his career, but that could change if the computer's projection holds up here.

(AFC South Champion) The AFC South is a dogfight with the Jags, and all tied at 8-6. Right now, the computer is expecting the to come out on top and that's mostly because they'll likely own all the big tiebreakers at the end of the season. Not only did they sweep the Colts, but they're guaranteed to finish with a better division record than the Texans if they can beat the in Week 18. Remaining schedule:at , , at Titans.5. Wild Card 1 It looks like the computer might have a crush on . Following the ' (9-5) win over the , the computer sees Cleveland as a virtual lock to make the playoffs. According to our projection, the Browns have an 88.9% NFL New York Giants Jersey chance of getting in. They can actually clinch a spot as soon as this weekend, but it will take a win over the Texans, along with a lot of help.Remaining schedule: at Texans, , at Bengals.6. Wild Card 2 The computer has decided to spice things up this week. Not only is it projecting that the Bills (8-6) will finish with the sixth-seed in the AFC, but it's also projecting that Buffalo will play THE CHIEFS in the wild-card round. We should now all cro s our fingers and hope that this happens.Remaining schedule:at Chargers, , at Dolphins.7. Wild Card 3 The computer almost malfunctioned trying to figure out who's going to get the final playoff spot in the AFC between the Colts, Texans and Bengals (8-6). In the end, the Texans got the nod. The computer is giving them a 59.1% chance of making the playoffs, compared to a 58.7% chance for Indy and a 43.5% chance for the Bengas. However, the Texans could be in some trouble this weekend with expected to mi s another game.

(NFC West Champion) The 49ers (11-3) aren't just projected to finish as the top seed in the NFC, they're also a HEAVY favorite to win the in the eyes of the computer. According to our projection, the 49ers have a 33.18% chance of winning it all, which is almost higher than the next THREE teams combined (the Ravens, Chiefs and Dolphins have a combined 35.55% chance of winning it all). Remaining schedule: Ravens, at , . 2. (NFC East Champion) Despite their shocking lo s on Monday, the computer is still expecting the Eagles (10-4) to win the NFC East. The reason for that is because the tiebreakers will almost certainly work to Philly's advantage if the Eagles and Cowboys both win out. If both teams finish 13-4, the Eagles would likely win the division on the rarely used strength of victory tiebreaker.Remaining schedule:, , at Giants.3. (NFC North Champion) With the Eagles in the middle of a December collapse, it wouldn't be crazy to see the (10-4) make the move up to the No. 2 seed, but the unfortunately for fans in Detroit, the computer doesn't see that happening. The computer has Detroit winning the NFC North and earning the three-seed.Remaining schedule:at , at Cowboys, Vikings.4.

Remaining schedule: Jaguars, Saints, at Panthers.5. Wild Card 1 We said this last week and we'll say it again this week: If there is one thing the computer has been consistent with all year, it's that the Cowboys (10-4) are going to get the fifth-seed in the NFC. They've been projected to finish here in EVERY single one of our projections and nothing has changed even after they got destroyed by the Bills on Sunday.Remaining schedule: at Dolphins, Lions, at Commanders.6. Wild Card 2 The biggest winner of Week 15 was the (7-7). Last week, they weren't projected to make the playoffs, but after upsetting the Eagles on Monday night, the computer now has Seattle finishing 10-7 and earning the sixth-seed in the NFC. Remaining schedule: at Titans, Steelers at Cardinals.7. Wild Card 3 According to the computer, the battle for the final wild-card spot is going to come down to the Saints, Vikings and Rams with L.A. getting the nod.
