There's only one game remaining in Week 14 of the 2021 NFL season. However, it could result in the first playoff berth being clinched, as the Arizona Cardinals are set to host the Los Angeles Rams in an NFC West showdown Monday night.
If the Cardinals win or tie, they will secure their spot in the postseason.
