Frequently asked questions

Can Jacksonville Jaguars make the playoffs?

Jacksonville Jaguars clinch with 8 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.
