NFL regular season concluded on Sunday, along with the playoff picture finally being clear. The Denver Broncos clinched a playoff berth with their win over the Kansas City Chiefs, eliminating the Cincinnati Bengals and Miami Dolphins from playoff contention.

The NFC South race seemed to be over long before Sunday when the Falcons lost in overtime at Washington in Week 17. The Buccaneers were facing the sad-sack Saints, who had lost their previous two games by a combined 59-10 score. Once the Buccaneers won, they'd be on their way to the playoffs.
