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 Carolina Panthers are the first NFL team to a) clinch a playoff berth and b) clinch their division title. 
  • The toughest remaining strength of schedule among NFC contenders belong to the Falcons (.667, mainly from having to face the Panthers twice), and the Cardinals and Vikings (.583). 
  • The easiest remaining strength of schedule among NFC contenders belong to the Redskins and Seahawks (.417). 
  • The Giants are the only team in the NFC East with a positive point differential. They currently sit third in the division on tiebreakers.
