Week 17 of the NFL season is always an interesting one. Some teams have nothing to play for while others see their seasons on the line in their final game. Let’s break down some of the biggest implications of week 17…
The Falcons and Panthers game Sunday might have the most playoff implications of every game this weekend. The Falcons need to win to get in while the Panthers could potentially be playing for a first-round bye. It gets crazy, but the Panthers have the chance to be the two see if they win and other miscellaneous things happen this weekend.
The Seahawks need to win this weekend to give themselves a chance at making the playoffs in 2017. If they can win and the Falcons lose, then the Seahawks will be a 2017 playoff team!
While the Ravens haven’t been all that impressive this season, if they can just beat Cincinnati then they’re in! Joe Flacco hasn’t been amazing this season but he’s been hot lately which is all that matters.
There are many other games that hold playoff implications but these are definitely some of the biggest. If you’re looking for others then make sure to watch the Titans/Jags, Bills/Dolphins, Raiders/Chargers, and Saints/Bucs game among others this weekend.
