Not all remaining schedules in the NFL are created equal, affecting playoff races significantly. Teams' strength of schedule fluctuates, particularly during the second half of the season.
The Pittsburgh Steelers may have a robust start at 6-2, but face the toughest schedule remaining, playing four teams with six or more wins.
The Kansas City Chiefs, currently 8-0, are projected to only encounter the fifth easiest remaining schedule, maintaining the potential for a 3% chance of an undefeated finish.
As the NFC East teams, the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders, vie for a division title, their remaining schedules are critical in determining playoff seeding.
