Season Coming to an End
December 18, 2019
The 2019 NFL regular season is coming to an end, and after week 13, the first clinched team is the New Orleans Saints, who have clinched the NFC South division title.
There are plenty of scenarios for some of the teams to clinch a spot in the playoffs at the moment, but only three teams need one win to gain their spot. The Baltimore Ravens will clinch a spot in the playoffs if they win in week 15 against the New York Jets (5-8). The New England Patriots will gain a playoff spot if they win in week 15 against the Cincinnati Bengals (1-12) . The Buffalo Bills will clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers (8-5). The San Francisco 49ers will clinch a playoff berth if they win or tie against the Atlanta Falcons (4-9). The final team that just needs a win in week 15 to clinch a spot in the playoffs is the Seattle Seahawks, who will be facing the Los Angeles Rams.
As of right now, the playoff picture is the Ravens and the 49ers being the first seeds, the Patriots and the Packers being the number two seeds, the Chiefs and Saints being the three seeds, and the Texans and the Cowboys as the four seeds. The Bills(5th) and the Steelers(6th) are as of now the two AFC wild card holders, and the Seahawks(5th) and the Vikings(6th) are the current NFC wild card holders.
