No,Kansas City wins the AFC West & gets in the playoffs. That will be a kick in the pants if Kyle Orton leads the Chiefs to the playoffs.
and if the chiefs don't win another game and san diego and the raiders win out? who goes in out of those two?
None, if the Broncos win one more game they win the division and no other team in that division is good enough for a wild card.
I think at the moment the Jets have the 6th spot, so ya gotta watch and see what they do as well.
Bengals have the Cards and Ravens, so I hope the Bengals do win out, IF that happens and the Steelers take care of business the Bengals winning would put the Steelers at the top of the division and win it again !
Jets have the Giants and Dolphins left ...
At the moment:
Jets over Bengals due to ...
Jets Wins tie break over Cincinnati based on best win percentage in common games.

Unless the Ravens lose the last week to the Bengals (Bengals still have a chance for the last spot) and the Steelers win the rest, Rams and Browns ... Steelrs could STILL win the division, which would give them a much needed Bye Week off ...
But thats a Best case scenario.
Interesting, the Steelers could potentially lose BOTH games and still make the playoffs.
They would end up 10-6, and have the tie breakers with Cincy, but I'm not sure how it breaks down with the Jets and Steelers, Jets have Giants and Dolphins left, could potentially split.

Remember what I said last week and then everyone laughed at me? Well, it can still happen...
Eagles and Cowboys won in Week 15 and the Giants lost. Here's what needs to happen in the final 2 weeks for the Iggles to make the playoffs....
Eagles beat both:
@ Cowboys (Week 16)
vs. Redskins (Week 17)
Dallas lose to both:
vs. Eagles (Week 16)
@ NYG (Week 17)
Giants to lose:
@ Jets (Week 16)
Very doable. Don't bury the Dream Team yet.
Much lies on this upcoming Week 16 though. If the Eagles win, that'll mean Dallas loses. And if the very pissed off and motivated Jets beat the Giants, well, the Iggles are almost there.
FIRST of all, any scenario that includes a Jets victory is laughable.
Second of all, just thinking out loud here...if everything breaks as you say in week 16, there is a very good chance the Cowboys/Giants game will be moved to Sunday night in week 17.
That means if the Eagles have already won on Sunday afternoon, the Giants will know they've been eliminated before they take the field Sunday night. And the Eagles would need the Giants to win.
A lot of food for thought...

The Cowboys are as unpredictable as the Jets. Plus, NY will be at home for that game. No matter what the scenario, I don't see the Giants laying down. Question though: Who do Giant fans hate more? Eagles or Dallas?
I'm a huge Cowboys fan and this week's game with the Eagles downright scares me. You're right, we've been very inconsistent this year. We should have had the division locked up by now but no we had to give the games away to the Lions, Cardinals, and Giants.
Interesting choice of words. The owner is scared too.

Funny thing is if the Giants win at 1:00, the Eagles-Cowboys game becomes virtually meaningless. In that case, Cowboys will need to beat the Giants in week 17.
