With the AFC playoff teams already decided this week will be for positioning. The NFC on the other hand still has two spots available. The NFC North game between Green Bay and the Lions will determine at least one of the teams in if not both. The winner gets in and wins the division, but the loser still has a shot with a Washington loss in their game against the Giants. The likely scenario is that two of those teams will be in the playoffs, but there is an outside chance the Tampa Bay could sneak in. Tampa Bay needs a win, Washington tie,Green Bay loss, Seattle loss, Houston loss, Jacksonville loss, and Philadelphia loss. The odds of the Tampa Bay scenario are very slim. This week is a week that some of the players could help or hurt the MVP conversation depending on how much they play.
