NFL Power Rankings Week 17: Predicting Standings After Season Finales

We're now staring the final week of the 2016 NFL season right in the face. All 32 teams will be in action next Sunday, and once Week 17 comes to an end so will the regular season.
For some teams, there will be a lot at stake in Week 17. There could be a playoff slot up for grabs in the NFC, while seeding shuffling can occur in the AFC. For other teams, though, there will be little to play for other than pride.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, for example, are locked into the No. 3 seed in the AFC. The Dallas Cowboys have clinched the top seed in the NFC. There are a plethora of teams with no shot at making the postseason at all.
So what will the playoff picture look like once the dust settles next week? That's what we're going to try to determine. We'll be making our best guess for the final standings, using factors like past performances, Week 17 matchups and team health as guidelines. We'll also take a look at some of the most important games of Week 17.
