Tracking the NFL playoff picture: Updates for chances to clinch open spots, division titles

We’re down to the final two weeks of the season, and there are two playoff spots (one in the AFC, one in the NFC) and three division titles there for the taking. Plus, the No. 1 seed in the NFC hasn’t been clinched. We’re tracking the closest, most interesting races live during Week 17 (and then again in Week 18). We have you covered through all the swings, big plays and surprises.

We begin with the AFC wild-card picture, where the Chargers punched their ticket Saturday with a win over the Patriots. The Broncos could have joined them if they had beaten the Bengals, but that final spot is still unclaimed.
