"Perhaps the biggest game of Week 16 already happened Thursday night as the Seattle Seahawks took control of the NFC West with a 38-37 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Seattle, who also took over the top seed in the conference, now are in charge of their own destiny. The victory clinched a playoff spot, but the division and conference are still up for grabs."
"Even without Parsons chasing down Caleb Williams, this NFC North showdown should be an entertaining one, and garners huge playoff implications. The Packers, fresh off of a loss to the Denver Broncos, can move into first place in the NFC North with a win, and move from the seventh seed to the second."
The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Los Angeles Rams 38-37 to take control of the NFC West and the conference's top seed, clinching a playoff spot while leaving division and conference races unsettled. The Rams fell from the NFC's top seed to fifth and would face the Buccaneers in the Wildcard under current standings. The Packers-Bears matchup carries major playoff implications after Packers pass rusher Micah Parsons suffered a season-ending ACL injury. The Packers can rise to first in the NFC North and improve seeding with a win, while the Bears can maintain the division lead. The Buccaneers and Panthers, both 7-7, continue to jockey for the NFC South's likely near-.500 fourth seed.
