ESPN Analytics' live NFL playoff chances -- which combine current in-game win probabilities with our Football Power Index (FPI) season projections -- provide each team's postseason likelihood at any given moment, starting with Monday night's 49ers-Colts game (8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN/ABC) and continuing throughout the entire Week 17 and Week 18 slates. The projected final standings will update regularly, and we're also tracking a few tight postseason races and the projected 2026 draft order for non-playoff teams. See how things stack up in both conferences throughout every game for the rest of the regular season.
