Which teams can lose a game and still reach the playoff?

This time of year, many of the remaining playoff contenders still control their own destiny.

But who can survive a loss in the playoff race?

That's what we're asking the Allstate Playoff Predictor today. Who's got breathing room -- and how much?

The rules: For each team, we're going to lock in a loss for the remaining regular-season game that it is most likely to lose, and then lock in wins for the rest of the regular-season games. For teams that have already lost a game, we locked in wins for the remainder of the regular season.
