With the Panthers’ victory over the Saints at home last week, they’ve pulled ahead into the top spot in the NFC South, clinching a spot in the postseason. The Saints currently hold the last playoff ticket in the NFC, and can clinch with a win against the Bucs in Week 17.

Arizona, meanwhile, could usurp that last spot as they are currently also sporting a 10-5 record. They’re currently priced at +8,000 to win the Super Bowl, and they’ll need a Saints loss or tie and a win themselves against the surging 49ers to make it happen. Remember, the Niners can clinch a playoff spot against the Falcons on Monday. If that happens, they could sit back in their final game, while the Cardinals are fresh off a gritty win against the Seahawks at CenturyLink.

As we mentioned earlier, the Cowboys (+6,000) will be involved in a winner-take-all contest in Week 17 when they take on the Eagles in Arlington. The Packers (+3,000) and Bears will be doing the same dance in Chicago.
