The NFL playoff picture received a facelift in Week 17 thanks to some early upsets and shuffling.
Most significantly, Ryan Fitzpatrick marched his Dolphins into Foxboro, Mass., and upset Tom Brady and the Patriots, 27-24, with a late touchdown strike to Mike Gesicki.
Even though this seems impossible since only Mike Tomlin and the Steelers lose crucial games against inferior opponents, it happened, and it had significant consequences for the Patriots, who fell to the No. 3 seed because of the loss.
With the loss, the Patriots win the AFC East at 12-4, but it wasn't enough to take the No.
