NFL Playoff Picture 2022-23: Full AFC Bracket After Week 18's Clinching Scenarios

The final domino in the AFC playoff picture fell with Sunday afternoon's Week 18 games.

There wasn't much to be decided on the final day, especially after Saturday. The Kansas City Chiefs secured the conference's top seed with their 31-13 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. In addition, the Jacksonville Jaguars won the AFC South for the first time since 2017 after they beat the Tennessee Titans 20-16.

The Cincinnati Bengals and Buffalo Bills had clinched their respective divisions already, with the Baltimore Ravens and Los Angeles Chargers assured of a wild-card position.

That left one more issue to resolve.
