With three weeks remaining in the 2024 NFL regular season, the playoff race is heating up. Seven teams have secured their spots, nine have been eliminated, and 16 teams remain in contention. This weekend could see five teams clinch a playoff berth, including the Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Green Bay Packers, and Washington Commanders. Meanwhile, teams like the Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Kansas City Chiefs are vying for better seeding.
With three weeks to go in the 2024 regular season , seven teams have officially secured a playoff berth and nine teams have been officially eliminated. That leaves exactly half the league—16 teams—fighting for their postseason dreams this weekend.
Yes, even the 5–9 New Orleans Saints mathematically have a chance to still make the NFC playoff bracket. Of those 16 teams still alive, five can earn a spot into the playoffs this weekend—the Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers of the AFC, as well as the NFC's Green Bay Packers and Washington Commanders. Additionally, playoff-bound teams like the Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs can secure a better postseason seed this weekend.
Simply put, Washington might need to wait another week or two before popping the playoff champagne. But who knows? Any given Sunday.has paved a path for Kansas City to potentially secure the No. 1 seed this weekend. All the Chiefs need is a win over the Houston Texans combined with MVP candidate Josh Allen and the Bills falling to, gulp, the 3–11 New England Patriots.We love a straight-forward clinching scenario.
