The Indianapolis Colts (7-8) are still alive but barely breathing in the AFC playoff race. The Colts must beat the Giants to stay alive. However, quarterback Anthony Richardson may not play due to foot and back soreness.
Even though the New York Giants (2-13) lost in Week 16, they took one step closer to the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. If the Giants lose out, they will secure the top selection.

The New York Jets (4-11) will do their best to play spoiler on Sunday. Their playoff chances are nonexistent, but the chances to beat a division rival could be enough motivation to play hard.
With the Kansas City Chiefs’ win on Christmas, the Buffalo Bills (12-3) can no longer get the AFC’s No. 1 seed. However, the Bills will secure the No. 2 seed with a win over the Jets.

The game between the Tennessee Titans (3-12) and Jacksonville Jaguars (3-12) is not for the faint of heart. Those expecting to watch good football should turn elsewhere. Frankly, both teams are better off losing to improve their position in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Even with nothing at stake, the Las Vegas Raiders (3-12) are still playing hard, as evidenced by their 19-14 win over the Jaguars in Week 16. Let’s see if they can make it two straight on Sunday.
The New Orleans Saints (5-10) never stood a chance in Monday night’s 34-0 loss to the Packers. The Raiders, however, are more of the Saints’ speed, meaning this game should be close.

After winning four consecutive games, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8-7) suffered a crushing 26-24 loss to the Cowboys. With the loss, the Bucs no longer control their own destiny. Tampa will miss the playoffs if the Falcons win out.

How ’bout them Cowboys (7-8)? Dallas has won four of its last five games, including last week’s 26-24 win over the Bucs. This week, the Cowboys will be without star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who is out for the season with a shoulder injury.
The Philadelphia Eagles (12-3) lost more than just the game in Week 16. The Eagles lost their quarterback, Jalen Hurts, for the foreseeable future. Hurts suffered a concussion in the loss and will not play against the Cowboys.

With the win over the 49ers in Week 16, the Miami Dolphins (7-8) kept their playoff hopes alive. The Dolphins must beat the Browns to have any chance at the postseason.
The Cleveland Browns (3-12) switched quarterbacks in Week 16, with Dorian Thompson-Robinson getting the start. However, it didn’t make a difference as Thompson-Robinson threw two interceptions in a 24-6 loss to the Bengals.

The Green Bay Packers (11-4) are getting hot at the right time. Green Bay has won four of its last five games, scoring at least 30 points in each contest. The Packers have clinched a playoff berth.
The Minnesota Vikings (13-2) continue to be the surprise of 2024. If Minnesota beats Green Bay and Detroit beats San Francisco, then Week 18’s game between the Vikings and Lions will be for the No. 1 seed.

The Atlanta Falcons (8-7) made a bold move in Week 17. The team benched starter Kirk Cousins for rookie Michael Penix Jr. If the Falcons win out, they win the NFC South and advance to the postseason.
The Washington Commanders (10-5) pulled off a miraculous victory over the Eagles in Week 16. Washington has an outside chance of winning the NFC East, but it all starts with a victory over the Falcons.
