Only the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Rams clinched playoff berths in Week 15, and neither has clinched a division title. There is more work ahead for every single contender, and that work continues this weekend.
After Thursday’s critical NFC West showdown, the NFC North comes into focus on Saturday with another battle between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears. The winner will enter Week 17 in first place and in the driver’s seat in the division. The Philadelphia Eagles, meanwhile, can clinch the NFC East with a win over the Washington Commanders
On Sunday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers will meet the first of two times in three weeks with first place in the NFC South on the line, while the Jacksonville Jaguars will try to snap the Denver Broncos’ 11-game win streak and extend their own to six.
