NFL Playoff is set—but with the underdogs closing in, the NFL Playoffs could look totally different by January

The NFL 2024 season is only getting exciting by the minute. As the players enter Week 14 of this NFL season, there are a lot of spots for the teams to accommodate. With around 12 spots remaining, the competition is pretty intense at this point of time. Two teams who have had an exceptional run on the field this season - the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs have already entered into the NFL. There are a lot of debates around this also, considering even though the Kansas City Chiefs remained undefeated throughout all the matches, three weeks ago they faced their first loss against the Buffalo Bills. With a score of 31-20, it had shaken up the confidence of the Kansas City Chiefs players, coaches and fans. However, much to the delight of fans and experts, the Kansas City Chiefs regained their momentum and defeated the San Francisco 49ers to finally enter the NFL Playoffs.With their spectacular performances this year, both the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs have entered the NFL AFC Playoffs confidently. But as per analysis based on data of Stephen Oh of SportsLine, things are looking interesting for the other teams. The Pittsburgh Steelers will probably be a strong contender belonging to AFC North and has a 75% chance to get an entry into the playoffs. When it comes to AFC South, the Houston Texans have a 97.6% chance to enter into the playoffs. For the other teams including the Los Angeles Chargers, Baltimore Ravens, and the Denver Broncos, they are still strong contenders and might be able to fill up the remaining spots in the NFL AFC. Denver Broncos, especially have a 79.6% chance of doing so.Also Read: The NFL playoffs are heating up—but Jason Kelce's take on who’s in may surprise everyoneThe NFL NFC playoffs, however, paint a different situation and in contrast to the AFC playoffs which still has 12 spots, NFC Playoffs has only 7 spots remaining.
