Frequently asked questions
Can Denver Broncos make the playoffs?
Denver Broncos clinch with 9 more wins on their own, even if every rival wins out.
How is the magic number computed?
Assume every rival wins all remaining games; the magic number is the minimum wins that still guarantee a berth. Ties count against the team, so it can show later than official.
Does seventh in the conference mean a playoff place?
No. Division winners are seeded regardless of record, so a team with a better record can still miss out on a wild card.
