The NFL regular season is complete and with the Steelers win over the Ravens and the Falcons win over the Saints cutting down the number of former Gophers making the post season, it will be a lean group still playing into January.
Week 18 results will decide more than half of the first-round order in the 2026 NFL Draft. Here's how things look as results come in.
The NFL playoff picture cruises into Week 18, where four divisions are up for grabs. On Jan. 3, Panthers-Bucs could decide the NFC South. If Carolina wins, the Panthers clinch the division. If Tampa Bay wins, the Bucs need a Saints win over Atlanta to secure another division crown.
Bo Nix is the first QB in NFL history with 10+ wins and 30+ touchdowns in each of his first two seasons, per CBS.
Result: The Steelers were the very last team to secure a playoff spot, and it took a missed field goal by the Ravens as time expired to do it. Pittsburgh wins the AFC North and earns the No. 4 seed, which means it will host the Houston Texans in the wild-card round. The Ravens are sent home for the season in painful fashion.
A brutally ugly game to decide, or sort of decide, the NFC South headlines the list of winners and losers from week 18.
