Thanks to their win over the Broncos, the Chiefs are currently in the AFC's top spot, but that might not last long, because the only way they'll be staying here is if the Titans lose to the Texans on Sunday.

However, the Chiefs did officially clinch at least the two-seed, which means they're guaranteed to get two home playoff games as long as they win in the wild-card round. The Chiefs might be in the top spot right now, but the Titans can take it from them on Sunday. With a win over the Texans, Tennessee will clinch the top seed in the AFC and the first-round bye that comes with it. That would be huge for Tennessee, because it would mean that Derrick Henry would get another week to heal before potentially making his return in the divisional round.

Due to the Chiefs' win, the Bengals no longer have a chance to earn the AFC's top seed, which means they don't have a lot to play for on Sunday. The Bengals clearly realize there won't be much on the line for them, which is likely one big reason that Joe Burrow won't be playing. If the Bengals lose to the Browns, they'll almost certainly be getting the fourth-seed. Unfortunately for the Bills, there's no way for them to jump up to the two-seed due to the Chiefs' win over Denver.

With a win over the Dolphins on Sunday, the Patriots will clinch the fifth-overall seed. The Colts can lock up a playoff spot on Sunday by beating the Jaguars in Jacksonville, which might sound easy on paper, but it's something they haven't done since That being said, even if the Colts win, they won't know what seed they'll be getting until after the Raiders and Chargers play on Sunday night.
