Week 13 of the 2022 campaign is officially in the books, so it’s once again time to see what the NFL Playoffs would look like if the season ended today.
The Philadelphia Eagles continue to roll as Jalen Hurts put on a show in a blowout win over the Tennessee Titans to get his team to 11-1. The top six in the NFC remained the same from a week ago, but we’ve got a new No. 7 as the Seattle Seahawks jumped ahead of the Washington Commanders, who fell back to No. 8 after tying the New York Giants.
The AFC saw all sorts of movement as the Buffalo Bills jumped from No. 5 to No. 1 due to losses by the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins. The Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans traded the third and fourth slots, while the Cincinnati Bengals jumped up from No. 6 to No. 5.
