"Yet, here we are, in the last week of the season, the NFL got exactly what they wanted, and that is three games that will determine a division winner and also has major seeding on the line. The NFL needed this, and they got it. Let's take a look at the three games that have the most on the line this week; the playoffs for the NFL and viewing purposes start a week early. Everyone wins."
"All the Steelers had to do Sunday was beat the Browns and they locked up the AFC North title in the first year with Aaron Rodgers, yet in typical drama NFL fashion, the Browns won 13-6. Doing so set up Sunday Night Football, the Ravens against the Steelers for the AFC North title. Lamar Jackson has been out with an injury, so that is something to keep an eye on, but the Steelers have also been without T.J. Watt."
"Remember when everyone said Baker Mayfield should be the MVP? Well the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 1-7 in their last eight games and should have closed the door on this division weeks ago. Yet here we are, the Carolina Panthers, with a win next week against the will win the NFC South for the first time since Cam Newton did in 2015."
The NFL finished the regular season with three meaningful Week 18 games that will decide division winners and influence playoff seeding. The Carolina Panthers can clinch the NFC South with a win, despite the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' recent 1-7 stretch. The AFC North title is set up as a Sunday Night Football matchup between the Ravens and Steelers after the Browns beat Pittsburgh 13-6. Key injuries and absences include Lamar Jackson's status and T.J. Watt missing time, factors that could affect the outcome and final playoff positioning.
