As the NFL enters Week 13, there are 21 teams either in or within one game of a playoff spot, including 10 in the NFC.
The Seattle Seahawks have the toughest remaining schedule among those NFC clubs, facing opponents with a combined 35-20 (.636) mark.
“From here on in, the only statistic that matters is winning games,” says head coach Bruce Arians of the 9-2 Arizona Cardinals. “Whatever we have to do as a football team to win a game, that’s all that matters.”
