Green Bay’s win over Seattle clinched a playoff berth for Minnesota, but it also had some significant consequences for the playoff picture in the NFC West.
The Rams now lead the division with three weeks to go. At 8-6, Los Angeles has the same record as Seattle. But the Rams defeated the Seahawks in overtime earlier this season, giving them the current tiebreaker.
At this point, it appears to be a three-way race for the division between the Rams (8-6), Seahawks (8-6), and Cardinals (7-7). After losing on Thursday night, the 49ers (6-8) have only a slim shot at making the playoffs.
Los Angeles will play at the Jets before finishing the season at home against the Cardinals and Seahawks to end the year.
Seattle will play Minnesota at home in Week 16 before playing at Chicago and at L.A.
Arizona is at Carolina next Sunday, at Los Angeles in Week 17, and will finish at home against San Francisco.
