We are down to the final three games of the 2018 NFL regular season, and if things ended today your Minnesota Vikings would be the #6 seed in the NFC playoffs.

According to the Upshot tool from the New York Times, the Vikings currently have a 53% chance to make the playoffs, despite their recent struggles.
