Since we're at a quarter-pole point in the NFL season (every team has played at least 4 games), here are the playoff standings if the season ended today (note, I'm using full-season tiebreakers):

A quick primer on what all of this information is:
Team, W(ins), L(osses), T(ies), and Pct (winning percentage) are all self-explanatory. 
The Conference and Division records are separated into separate columns for Wins/Losses/Ties. This was purely a formatting move designed to help me update the tables more efficiently. 
PF - Points For (points scored by the team for the season)
PA - Points Against (points scored by the team's opponents for the season)
Pythag% - Pythagorean winning percentage - this is based on PF and PA
RoS SOS - Rest of Season Strength of Schedule

Interesting bits of information:
  • The top 6 teams by pythagorean win percentage are (in order): the Cardinals, Packers, Panthers, Falcons, Giants, and Eagles. The lone playoff team not on this list is the Vikings. 
  • Compared to last season, there would be three new playoff teams if the season ended today: the Giants, Falcons, and Vikings (replacing the Seahawks, Cowboys, and Lions).
