The charts below list the full range of outcomes for teams that are already in or have a mathematical shot at the playoffs. Note: We did not include ties — which exponentially increase the charts’ complexity — because teams rarely tie.

These trees are based on our interactive playoff simulator, which was created to let you explore all the ways the season could end for your team.

A.F.C. East

New England Patriots (12-3) The Patriots did it again, clinching a bye week by beating the Bills on Sunday. They are now strong favorites to secure the No. 1 A.F.C. playoff seed and home-field advantage throughout the conference playoffs. A win against the Jets or a Steelers loss against the Browns would clinch it. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Patriots’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Buffalo Bills (8-7) Four A.F.C. teams — the Bills, Chargers, Ravens and Titans — are vying for two wild-card spots. Of these teams, the Bills face the longest odds: Our simulator gives them only a one in five chance of making the playoffs. They must win on Sunday and also get help in the form of either a Ravens loss or losses by both the Chargers and the Titans. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Bills’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

A.F.C. North

Pittsburgh Steelers (12-3) The Steelers have clinched a bye week and still have an outside chance to secure the No. 1 seed on Sunday. They must beat the 0-15 Browns and hope the 12-3 Patriots lose against the Jets. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Steelers’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Baltimore Ravens (9-6) Of the four teams vying for an A.F.C. wild-card berth, the Ravens are in the best position. They are very likely to make the playoffs: Our simulator gives them a 94 percent chance. A win against the Bengals guarantees the Ravens the No. 5 spot, but they are likely to make the playoffs even with a loss and a 9-7 finish to the season. If they do lose on Sunday, they would need to be unlucky twice: A Bills win over the Dolphins and a Titans win over the Jaguars would keep them out.

A.F.C. South

Jacksonville Jaguars (10-5) The Jaguars have clinched the No. 3 seed in the A.F.C. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Jaguars’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Tennessee Titans (8-7) The Titans control their playoff chances. A win on Sunday over the Jaguars, who have already clinched the A.F.C. South title and the No. 3 playoff seed, would clinch a wild-card spot for Tennessee. Should the Titans lose, they could still sneak into the playoffs at 8-8 if both the Dolphins beat the Bills and the Raiders beat the Chargers on the road in Los Angeles. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Titans’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

A.F.C. West

Kansas City Chiefs (9-6) The Kansas City Chiefs have clinched the No. 4 seed in the A.F.C. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Chiefs’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Los Angeles Chargers (8-7) As one of the four teams left fighting over the two-wild card spots in the A.F.C., the Chargers must win and get help. Assuming the Chargers win on Sunday, they’d need wins from the Jaguars and either the Dolphins or the Ravens to snag the No. 6 seed. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Chargers’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

N.F.C. East

Philadelphia Eagles (13-2) The Eagles have clinched the No. 1 seed in the N.F.C. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Eagles’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

N.F.C. North

Minnesota Vikings (12-3) Only a series of unfortunate events would keep the Vikings from a No. 2 N.F.C. seed and the bye week that comes with it. (Yes, this was written by a Vikings fan.) Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Vikings’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

N.F.C. South

New Orleans Saints (11-4) The Saints enter the final week tied with the Panthers atop the N.F.C. South and having already secured a spot in the playoffs. Their better division record guarantees them an N.F.C South title if they win on Sunday. A loss coupled with a Panthers win would leave the Saints playing their first playoff game as a wild-card team. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Saints’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Carolina Panthers (11-4) No team has the range of playoff possibilities that the Panthers do. Depending on how Sunday’s games end, they could finish as high as the No. 2 seed — with a bye week and home-field advantage for their first playoff game — or as low as the No. 5 seed, landing in the wild-card round and most likely playing all their postseason games on the road. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Panthers’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

Atlanta Falcons (9-6) One of the wild-card spots in the N.F.C. will go to the loser of the division race between the Saints and the Panthers. The other will go to the Falcons or the Seahawks. Atlanta’s win over the Seahawks in November gives the Falcons the edge: Only a loss coupled with a Seahawks win over the Cardinals would keep Atlanta out of the postseason. Pinch to zoom Explore all of the Falcons’ playoff scenarios in our simulator.

N.F.C. West

Los Angeles Rams (11-4) The Rams are division champions and will host a wild-card-round game. The results of Sunday’s games will determine their opponent. A win by the Rams would give them the No. 3 seed and a home opener against the Falcons or the Seahawks. A loss in addition to a win from either the Panthers or the Saints would leave the Rams with the No. 4 seed and a matchup against the second-place finisher in the N.F.C. South.
