Digest more
It all comes down to this. There is only one week remaining in the 2025-26 NFL regular season, with two playoff spots on the line. There is one spot up for grabs in the AFC and one in the NFC, with both games determining those positions set to be highlighted in Week 18.
Week 18 will see the final two playoff spots decided. The AFC North champion will be crowned when the Steelers host the Ravens. In the NFC South, the Panthers can win the division with a win over the Buccaneers in Tampa, while the Buccaneers need a win on Saturday and a Falcons' loss in Week 18.
Every year, the NFL waits as long as possible before releasing the Week 18 schedule and that announcement finally came on Sunday night.
Week 18 is upon us in the NFL, and the conclusion of the 2025 regular season has many playoff scenarios, including the remaining two spots in the AFC and NFC.
