With one game remaining on the NFL schedule in Week 13, everyone in the NFC has played so we know what the NFC playoff picture looks like.
In terms of the seven playoff seeds in the conference, nothing has changed.
These are the updated NFL playoff picture standings in the NFC:
- Detroit Lions, 11-1
- Philadelphia Eagles, 10-2
- Seattle Seahawks, 7-5
- Atlanta Falcons, 6-6
- Minnesota Vikings, 10-2
- Green Bay Packers, 9-3
- Washington Commanders, 8-5
The Falcons were the only team not to win their game in Week 13.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams are in the mix at 6-6.
In the NFC South, things have tightened. The Bucs and Falcons are tied at 6-6. Atlanta has lost three games in a row, while Tampa has won two straight, but Atlanta, having beaten the Bucs twice this season, holds a head-to-head tiebreaker.
In the NFC West, the Seahawks pulled a game ahead of Arizona. They rallied from 14 points down to beat the New York Jets 26-21, while the Cardinals blew a 13-point lead to the Vikings to lose 23-22. The Rams even their record at 6-6 as well.
