The NFC has continued to separate themselves from the top to the bottom after a weird Week 15. Some upsets kept some teams in the hunt, while others have hurt themselves in the NFL Playoff picture with an embarrassing loss. The NFL had its first team lock up a spot in the NFL Playoffs this past week, with the Green Bay Packers clinching the NFC North.
With three weeks left to play in the season, some games this week can make or break the NFL Playoff chances for some teams as well as make some divisions clearer.
