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 Patriots have a cushion for the 1 seed, and a bigger one as long as Kansas City leads the West. The Patriots have an insurmountable lead in record against common opponents over the Chiefs, while they currently trail the Raiders in that tiebreaker. 
  • The Chiefs/Raiders have a 2-game edge over any other contender for the other AFC bye, so one of these two teams will almost assuredly grab the other bye slot. 
  • Both Pittsburgh and Baltimore control their own destiny for the AFC North, thanks to Baltimore's earlier win over Pittsburgh and their rematch in week 16. 
  • Houston and Tennessee also control their own destiny for the AFC South as they will meet in week 17 (Houston won the earlier meeting). Note that, even if Tennessee wins that week 17 matchup, they would still lose a potential tiebreaker to Houston due to a poorer divisional record. 
  • While the Broncos currently have the 6th playoff spot, their end of season schedule is absolutely brutal: NE, @KC, OAK . Miami gets the entire AFC East, including the Patriots in week 17, when they may have nothing left to play for.
