Three teams have punched their ticket to the NFL playoffs. New England and Carolina have already won their respective divisions, and the Arizona Cardinals are one win or a Seattle loss away from clinching the NFC West. Denver and Cincinnati hold two game leads, and are also vying for the second seee and a first round bye, in the AFC playoffs. The Green Bay Packers hold a one game lead over the Minnesota Vikings, which could make their week 17 matchup a winner takes all game. Two divisions, the AFC South and NFC East have a division leader under .500. Jacksonville defeated the Colts to pull within one game of the division lead at 5-8. The Colts or Texans will take control of the division this weekend, as they play each other. The Eagles, Giants, and Redksins are all tied atop the NFC East at 6-7.
