@ryanabest @amock419 @thomasoide These trees and scenarios are updating as games complete — follow along as you watch!

Playoff trees return this year to @TheAthletic. If you're the sort of psychopath who wants to know what happens when four AFC teams finish 12-5 and the playoff seeds are determined by deep tiebreakers, we have you covered.
