NFL Playoff Bracket Scenarios 2025-26 Week 11, Standings After Eagles vs. Packers

The Philadelphia Eagles returned to the top of the NFC with their Monday night win over the Green Bay Packers.

Jalen Hurts and Co. now own head-to-head wins over Green Bay, the Los Angeles Rams and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Philadelphia has an opportunity to add to its collection in Week 11 against the Detroit Lions, who are fighting for the NFC North crown with Green Bay and two others.

Green Bay's defeat allowed Detroit to take over first place in the NFC North. The Packers dropped all the way down to seventh place and the final wild-card position.

While the NFC was in the spotlight on Monday, the focus shifts back to the top of the AFC on Thursday night, when the New England Patriots continue their hunt for the top seed against the New York Jets.

The Indianapolis Colts are on top of the AFC by way of the conference record tiebreaker.

The New England Patriots can temporarily move up to the top spot with a Thursday night win over the New York Jets.

Sean Payton's Denver Broncos host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday in a game that could shift the AFC West race.

Kansas City might not be able to make up the three-game gap to Denver, but the Los Angeles Chargers are lurking one game back of the Broncos.

The Chargers could potentially help the Chiefs on Sunday since they visit the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jacksonville is ahead of Kansas City on a head-to-head tiebreaker in the race for the final AFC playoff position.

The Jaguars' loss to the Houston Texans in Week 10 allowed Houston and the Baltimore Ravens to creep back into the wild-card race at 4-5.

Baltimore's eyes are on the AFC North title. The Ravens should win three more games in a row before a Week 14 clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Pittsburgh needs to beat the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday in order to keep Baltimore at bay for at least another week.

Philadelphia vaulted back into the top spot in the NFC with its Monday win.

The Eagles are ahead of the Seattle Seahawks on the conference record tiebreaker. They are 6-1 within the NFC, while Seattle is 4-2.

Philadelphia can continue to earn tiebreakers in its favor on Sunday night, when the NFC North-leading Lions come to Lincoln Financial Field.

Detroit benefited the most from Green Bay's defeat, as it took control of the tightest divisional title race in the NFL.

Green Bay has an opportunity to bounce back in Week 11 against the New York Giants. The Packers need help from Philadelphia and the Minnesota Vikings next week. Minnesota plays host to the Chicago Bears.

Week 11's other vital NFC showdown pits the Seahawks against the Los Angeles Rams. That is the first of two head-to-head meetings in the next six weeks between the Seahawks and Rams.
