The Times’ Ten NFL Power Rankings: 49ers on the rise ahead of showdown in Baltimore

Yep, it’s that time of year — time to talk playoff possibilities for Week 13.

Already, three teams can clinch a playoff berth this weekend — San Francisco, New England and New Orleans.

The NFC West, of course, remains a tight chase, with the Seahawks just one game back of the 49ers with five games remaining. But San Francisco can earn at least a wild-card spot with a victory at Baltimore on Sunday and a loss (or tie) by the Los Angeles Rams in Arizona.

The Saints just need a victory over Atlanta on Thursday night to clinch the NFC South.
