two: Baltimore Ravens (12-4)
3: Houston Texans (10-6)
four: Denver Broncos (8-8)
5: Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4)
6: Cincinnati Bengals (9-7)
The Steelers are likely to visit the Denver Broncos, who won the actual AFC West from 8-8 in spite to the fact that they lost their own final three games from the regular season. QB Tim Tebow and also the gang have struggled offensively a substantial amount of late, including within the 7-3 loss from the Kansas City Chiefs upon Sunday. Tebow and also the Broncos got within though, when the Oakland Raiders were beaten through the San Diego Chargers.
The Houston Texans knew they were going to become the No. 3 seed it doesn't matter what went down within Week 17, and they were beaten with a single point through the Tennessee Titans after deciding to visit for two following scoring what might have been the game-tying touchdown with a few moments remaining. Tennessee halted the Texans, but that’s exactly where its luck ran out during the day. The Titans were the only real team that might have won the last spot within the playoffs that received on Sunday, but because of bad tiebreakers, it's the Cincinnati Bengals which will claim the Absolutely no. 6 spot rather. The Bengals were beaten through the aforementioned Ravens, but thanks to the truth that both Denver as well as Oakland lost, the face to face win that Cincinnati had from the Titans in Week 9 turned out to be the difference.
Pittsburgh and Colorado haven’t played this season, but you realize that the public will probably be all over the Steelers using their vaunted defense from the Tebow “Triple Option” appear. Cincinnati faced the Texans a month ago, and it had been the last online game that Houston received. QB TJ Yates threw the overall game winning TD move with two ticks left about the clock to secure the franchise’s very first playoff berth within team history.
In the event that Houston wins, it'll play against the Ravens within the second round from the playoffs in a rematch of the game that had been a brutal beat down how the Texans were about the wrong side associated with at M&T Financial institution Stadium early within the season. If Cincinnati is victorious, it will go to the Patriots on The month of january 14th or fifteenth. The Steelers/Broncos winner will require on the other team that's remaining. New England had been beaten by Pittsburgh however crushed Denver this year, while Baltimore went 2-0 from the Steelers and didn’t perform the Broncos.
Present NFL Playoff Image (NFC Playoff Situations)
1: Eco-friendly Bay Packers (15-1)
two: San Francisco 49ers (13-3)
3: Saints (13-3)
four: New York Giants/Dallas Cowboys (8-7)
5: NFC Crazy Card: Atlanta Falcons (10-6)
6: NFC Crazy Card: Detroit Elephants (10-6)
Whereas there is plenty of dropping in Week 17 within the AFC, in the actual NFC, teams really fought against it out to try and gain positioning within the playoffs. The Green These types of Packers had nothing to be worried about, as they were guaranteed the very best seed in the conference prior to the day ever began. The San Francisco 49ers shut out the Absolutely no. 2 seed within the postseason and a comparatively improbable bye week within the first round from the playoffs by keeping off a late rally through the St. Louis Rams within Week 17. That made the actual efforts of the Saints futile in spite to the fact that they brutalized the actual Carolina Panthers within Week 17.
New Orleans will take on the actual Detroit Lions within the first round from the postseason. The Lions were trying their finest to avoid the day at the Superdome this particular coming week through playing their hearts out from the Packers at Lambeau Area. That being stated, they were beaten 45-41 inside a wild last game from the season, and these were stuck here once the Atlanta Falcons crippled the actual Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The actual Falcons, who lost twice this season to New Orleans, avoided the 3rd meeting, and right now, they will go either New You are able to or Dallas based on which team is victorious the de facto NFC Eastern championship game this evening. (Check Back again For Updates Later on Tonight)
New Orleans sent the Lions upon Sunday Night Football the very first time that these 2 teams met a month . 5 ago. The Saints will be in line for any meeting with the 49ers having a win, while the Lions will require on the Packers for that third time this year if they were to accomplish the upset.
The Falcons didn’t perform either Dallas or Ny in the normal season. The Falcons will have an opportunity to exact some revenge from the Packers should they meet within the second round from the playoffs, as which was the juncture by which Green Bay required care of Atlanta within the postseason last year in the Georgia Dome. The Falcons as well as Niners didn’t play this season. San Francisco beat Ny and Detroit throughout the regular season, however the Cowboys were the very first (and with regard to awhile, the just) team in order to beat the Niners within 2011.
