The 2025 NFL regular season is drawing to a close, with just two weeks left for teams to earn the wins necessary to ensure their place in the playoffs and a shot at hoisting the Lombardi Trophy at the conclusion of Super Bowl LX in Santa Clara,

The Seahawks’ chances at the one seed are greatly impacted by the outcome of the 49ers game on Monday Night Football.

The 49ers face the Colts in Indianapolis on Monday. We break down what the game means for the NFL playoff picture.

Take a look at the updated NFL playoff picture with the standings in both the AFC and NFC after all the Week 16 games.

On the heels of dramatic victories by the Seattle Seahawks and Chicago Bears that catapulted them to the top of the NFC, Sunday's Week 16 slate looked to continue the unpredictable nature of the 2025 season and throw the playoff picture further into mystery and disarray.

Week 16 saw several teams clinch playoff spots, and changed the pecking order in both the NFC and the AFC. In the NFC, we have a new team in the No. 1 spot, and just two playoff spots left up for grabs as five teams have now clinched. In the AFC, the race for the No. 1 spot remains tight, as six teams remain alive in the chase for the bye week.

The Falcons defeated the Arizona Cardinals for their second straight win and now sit at 6-9 overall. The Saints blew out the New York Jets, 29-6, to secure their third straight win. That's not bad for a team that started 2-10 this season.

The Seahawks were on the verge of clinching a playoff spot entering Week 16. Here's what to know after their "Thursday Night Football" win.
