Frequently asked questions

Can Tennessee Titans make the playoffs?

Tennessee Titans cannot clinch on their own even by winning out; they need help.

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.
