Here are the 14 teams we are projecting to make the playoffs, plus every team's chances of getting in
With nine weeks of the NFL season in the books, that means we're exactly halfway through the year, which makes right now the perfect time to start talking about the playoffs.
The beauty of the NFL playoff race right now is that all 32 teams are currently still alive, which is news that might actually come as a total shock to some Lions fans. Although the Lions currently have zero wins, they're still mathematically alive, which is why everyone in Detroit should love math right now.
One reason every team is still alive is because of playoff expansion. The 2021 season will mark the second year of the 14-team playoff era. From 1990 to 2019, there were only 12 teams, but the NFL added two extra playoff slots starting with the 2020 season.
