2025 NFL playoff picture, standings: Who's in, who's out, who's in the hunt across NFC and AFC races
The 2025 NFL season is more than halfway complete now that Week 11 is in the books. Only seven full weeks of regular season action remain until the start of the playoffs. Which means, while the postseason picture is far from finalized, the race for playoff berths -- and top seeding -- is well underway.
5. Buffalo Bills (7-3), wild card No. 1: QB Josh Allen's big game Sunday moved Buffalo up one spot in the seeding but got the Bills no closer to the AFC East lead. Tough game in Houston looms Thursday night. Remaining schedule: at Texans, at Steelers, vs. Bengals, at Patriots, at Browns, vs. Eagles, vs. Jets
A winning record still has the Chargers in control of their playoff destiny, at least at face value. As Chargers.com’s Eric Smith pointed out, The Athletic still gives the Chargers a 64 percent chance. ESPN is right behind at 63 percent. The chance stays at an even 60 percent when looking at the numbers from NFL’s Next Gen Stats.
The Houston Texans moved one step closer to the wild-card positions in the AFC with their Thursday night win over the Buffalo Bills.

'Fool's gold': How concerning is Patriots' soft schedule when it comes to playoff success?
The New England Patriots enter Week 12 in the driver's seat to win the AFC East. However, how they got to this point leads to more questions.
The 2025 NFL regular season is entering the stretch run, but Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love wasn't even sure what week of the schedule the league was in until he was reminded this week.
It makes the Packers' next three weeks -- back-to-back-to-back division games beginning with the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday at Lambeau Field ( 1 p.m. ET, Fox) -- a potential season-defining stretch that could make or break their chances of winning the NFC North and having at least one home playoff game.
