Every year, the NFL waits as long as possible before announcing the full schedule for week 18 and that announcement finally came on Sunday evening.
The last week of NFL The season will begin Saturday with a doubleheader and conclude Sunday evening with the dolphins And Invoices fighting in Miami and the winner taking the AFC East title. This will be the 272nd and final game of the 2023 season. For the Bills, there's a chance they'll find themselves in a situation where a win gives them a division title, but a loss puts them out of the playoffs.
However, before we get to Sunday night's game, there will be 15 games before that and many of them will have playoff implications, starting with the two games that will be played on Saturday.
In the first game of the ESPN doubleheader, the Crows will welcome the Steelers. Even though Baltimore has already clinched first place overall in the AFC, there will be a lot to play for Pittsburgh. If the Steelers win, that will open the door for them to clinch a playoff spot if the Bills or Jaguars lose (the Steelers could also lose, but they'll need a few other things).
At the end of the match on Saturday, the Colts will welcome the Texans in a win-win showdown in the AFC South. The winner of the game is guaranteed a wild card spot and the winning team could also win the AFC South title if the Jaguars lose to the Titans.
