Consider the significant historical aspects as the NFL wraps up its 104th regular season

With one week left, 20 teams are still vying for the Super Bowl, equaling the number from 2006 and marking the highest in the past 41 years since 1982, which saw a record 22 teams in contention.

Five playoff spots are yet to be secured, the highest number going into the final week since 2020 when there were seven. Four division titles remain up for grabs, matching the highest number entering the last game of the season from 2014. Continuing a 14-year tradition, the NFL has scheduled all 16 games in the previous week as division matchups.

As the NFL approaches the end of an exciting regular season, make sure you’re ready for the action. Of the 16 games this week, 14 feature teams still in the playoff hunt, and 13 games will impact the playoff lineup.

And it’s just 40 days until Super Bowl LVIII!

Week 18 NFL National Game of the Week: Bills @ Dolphins

The Buffalo Bills are on the brink of clinching the AFC East title for the fourth consecutive year with a victory, tying for the NFL’s second-longest current win streak (four games). QB Josh Allen is close to setting records for rushing TDs by a QB, and RB James Cook ranks third in NFL scrimmage yards since Week 10. WR Stefon Diggs and rookie TE Dalton Kinkaid are also making significant impacts.

The Miami Dolphins, leading the NFL in total and scoring offense, can secure their first division title since 2008 with a win. QB Tua Tagovailoa is close to joining Dan Marino as the only ‘Phins with 4,500 passing yards and 30 TD passes, while RBs Raheem Mostert (NFL high 21 TDs) and De’Von Achane (leads rookies with 10 TDs) are touchdown makers. WR Tyreek Hill is on track for a record-breaking season.
