The NFL playoff race is heating up heading into Thanksgiving, and here's how the playoff picture is shaping up before Monday Night Football in Week 12: DIVISION LEADERS 1.

With a the Buffalo Bills on a bye, a big Thursday Night Football game, a Sunday night contest featuring two NFC playoff hopefuls, and a Monday night game featuring two AFC playoff teams, Sunday afternoon felt a little light as far as the NFL Playoff Picture was concerned,

One game remains on the NFL schedule in Week 12 but it is between two AFC teams, meaning the NFL playoff picture in the NFC is clear as we enter Week 13. Only one change in the playoff picture changed, although things tightened in a pair of divisions.
