Week 15 Playoff Clinching Scenarios

Philadelphia Eagles clinch NFC East

• Eagles win vs. Pittsburgh Steelers AND Washington Commanders loss/tie vs. New Orleans Saints
• or Eagles tie vs. Steelers AND Washington Commanders loss vs. New Orleans Saints

Minnesota Vikings clinch playoff berth

• Vikings win vs. Chicago Bears
• or Los Angeles Rams loss/tie vs. San Francisco 49ers
• or Seattle Seahawks loss/tie vs. Green Bay Packers

Green Bay Packers clinch playoff berth

• Packers win vs. Seattle Seahawks AND Los Angeles Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers ends in a tie AND Atlanta Falcons loss/tie vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Houston Texans clinch AFC South

• Texans win vs. Miami Dolphins AND Indianapolis Colts loss vs. Denver Broncos

The NFC North could end the weekend with three playoff teams, though it is a long shot for both the Vikings and Packers to get in.

Minnesota has the simplest path of the two, needing just a win over the Chicago Bears or one of the Rams or Seahawks to lose.

The Packers will now by the end of Thursday night based on the result of the Rams-49ers game if they can clinch. It seems unlikely the NFC West rivals will tie, but stranger things have happened. The Rams and Niners did play to a tie during the 2012 season.

Coming out of their bye last week, the Houston Texans have an opportunity to win the AFC South for the second straight year with a win over the Miami Dolphins and an Indianapolis Colts loss to the Denver Broncos.

The Texans have lost three of their last five games, but they built up enough of a cushion early in the season that they aren't in immediate danger of missing the playoffs. If they lose and the Colts win this weekend, things could get interesting because the Texans' next two games are against the Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens.

In addition to trying to keep pace with the Lions for the No. 1 seed in the NFC, the Eagles can win the NFC East for the second time in three years. They need a victory and loss by the Commanders to do it, but they are a safe bet to win the division title very soon.

Week 15 Elimination Scenarios

NFC Elimination Scenarios

Carolina Panthers

• Panthers loss/tie vs. Dallas Cowboys
• or Tampa Bay Buccaneers win/tie vs. Los Angeles Rams
• or Atlanta Falcons win vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Even though the Panthers' season is on the verge of being over as far as their playoff hopes are concerned, the most important thing that has happened to the franchise is Bryce Young's improved play over the last three weeks.

Young nearly led the Panthers to one of the biggest upsets of the season on Sunday against the Eagles. He should be able to continue his upward trajectory against a bad Dallas Cowboys defense this week.

Dallas Cowboys

• Cowboys loss vs. Panthers AND Washington Commanders win/tie vs. New Orleans Saints
• or Cowboys tie vs. Panthers AND Washington Commanders win vs. New Orleans Saints

The Cowboys' misery could potentially come to an end this week with a loss vs. the Panthers and a victory by the Washington Commanders.

Monday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals was a perfect encapsulation of this Cowboys' season. They blocked a punt in the final minute of regulation, but the Bengals got the ball back to score the game-winning touchdown when Amani Oruwariye couldn't corral the ball when he inexplicably tried to pick it up.

Chicago Bears

• Bears loss/tie vs. Minnesota Vikings
• or Washington Commanders win/tie vs. New Orleans Saints

The once-promising start for the Bears has given way to a disastrous seven-week stretch. They haven't won a game since before their bye in Week 7, fired Shane Waldron as their offensive coordinator and Matt Eberflus as head coach.

Chicago's nadir came on Sunday with a 38-13 loss to the injury-ravaged San Francisco 49ers. Things don't get easier for the Bears in Week 15 when they take on the Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium.

AFC Elimination Scenarios

Cincinnati Bengals

• Bengals loss vs. Tennessee Titans AND Denver Broncos win/tie vs. Indianapolis Colts
• or Bengals tie vs. Titans AND Baltimore Ravens win/tie vs. New York Giants AND Los Angeles Chargers win/tie vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers AND Denver Broncos win vs. Indianapolis Colts

Arguably the most disappointing team of the 2024 season, the Bengals could keep hope alive for at least one more week with a winnable game against the Tennessee Titans in Week 15.

There is a path for the Bengals to make the playoffs if they win out, but it will require a lot of other things going right. They are three games behind the Denver Broncos for the final playoff spot.

If the Broncos lose to the Colts, their remaining schedule is against the Chargers, Bengals and Chiefs. Cincinnati has to play the Browns, Broncos and Steelers to end the season.

Given the issues on Cincinnati's defense, it's hard to see this team stringing together five straight wins. But it's not an impossible task with that group of opponents, especially if the Steelers have locked up the AFC North prior to that Week 18 game.
