Colts also have to win. If it's Raiders-Titans-Steelers, the Titans go because of strength of victory. But if Indy wins, they knock out Tennessee because of a better divisional record. Raiders beat Indy and have strength of victory tiebreaker over Pittsburgh. Raiders also need a win by the Bears, Lions, Chiefs or Pats. The Raiders stink though. They're probably going to lose. Houston hasn't announced either way because they won't know until game time if they have something to play for. If KC wins (home to the Chargers), they get the 3 seed. But if KC loses, Houston gets the 3 seed with a win. KC plays in the early games but Houston plays later. If KC wins, Houston will rest everybody. Don't they usually arrange the schedule so games that affect each other are at the same time? Or is that only for in-out the playoffs(I see the 4 AFC games and the Eagles-Giants are playing at the same time) I thought they did. They must not do it for seeding differences that don’t matter as far as whether or not you get a bye or division vs WC. So 3 vs 4 you’re getting a home game but not a bye so that’s not as important. Just looking at the schedule, NE and KC play at the same time as do NO and GB (who wins and loses could affect byes). Dal and Philly are at the same time. Pitt/Ten/Oak are all at the same time.
