There are just three weeks left in the 2025 NFL season and only 19 teams remain in the playoff hunt. In Week 15, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cincinnati Bengals were officially eliminated. The Chiefs' 10-year playoff streak came to an end following their loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.

The playoff expansion likely will allow all football teams with three or four wins in the nine-game regular season to make the playoffs. Previously, all five-win and some four-win teams made the field.

Dak Prescott stared blankly for several seconds when the star quarterback was asked what the goal would be for the Dallas Cowboys over the final three games with their playoff hopes all but gone.
