The NFL released the playoff scenarios for Week 17, determining which teams can secure a No. 1 seed -- which comes with a first-round bye and home-field advantage -- a division title or a playoff berth this week.

Despite stretches of discontent in 2024, the Philadelphia Eagles are knocking on the door of their second division title in three years. Their path is straightforward: first, they need to beat the Dallas Cowboys Sunday afternoon, and they need help from Atlanta against a Commanders team they lost to this past Sunday.

The NFL playoff picture is about to be complete. Check back throughout Week 18 for updates on AFC and NFC scenarios, as well as wild-card matchups.

Here’s every playoff-clinching scenario in Week 17 as the Houston Texans kickstart the week with a matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.

If the Steelers win in Week 18 and the Ravens lose, Pittsburgh is the AFC North champs and the No. 3 seed. This is the only way the Steelers get a home playoff game. If the Steelers and Ravens win in Week 18, Baltimore wins the AFC North and the Steelers are the No. 5 seed.

The NFL’s playoff field is nearly set, but a few key questions remain entering the final day of the regular season.
