NFL Week 16 top storylines: Eagles still soaring; who earns final AFC playoff spots?

NFL Week 16 is in full swing, with three games already in the books after Thursday and Saturday’s action. Sunday and Monday will bring another 13 hotly contested matchups as teams continue to fight to secure tickets to the postseason or garner a small degree of respectability after disappointing campaigns.

Three AFC teams — Kansas City, Buffalo and Houston — have clinched their divisions. Five more teams — Baltimore and Pittsburgh in the AFC; Detroit, Philadelphia and Minnesota in the NFC — have also secured playoff berths. The number of division champs or playoff qualifiers could expand by Monday night.
