The Tennessee Titans have multiple ways to punch their ticket to the postseason in Week 17.
The most direct route is in the AFC South, where the Titans’ magic number is one. Tennessee can clinch the division with a win over the Miami Dolphins, or an Indianapolis Colts loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.
However, if the Titans don’t wrap up the AFC South in Week 17, they have other avenues to secure a playoff spot. Those scenarios are as follows:
TEN tie OR
LAC loss or tie + BAL loss or tie OR
LAC loss or tie + NE loss or tie OR
BAL loss or tie + NE loss or tie
Tennessee also remains in striking distance for the No. 1 seed in the conference.
If the Titans win and the Kansas City Chiefs lose to the Cincinnati Bengals, Tennessee would take over the No. 1 seed and control its own destiny for a first-round bye going into Week 18.
