The Green Bay Packers have won the NFC North for the third consecutive season and they are the first team to clinch a playoff spot in 2021.
They are currently the number one seed in the NFC. Head coach Matt LaFleur deserves a ton of credit for this.
As for head coach John Harbaugh of the Baltimore Ravens, they are in major trouble and currently out of a playoff spot in the AFC. The Cincinnati Bengals are currently in the lead for the AFC North. If the Cleveland Browns beat the Las Vegas Raiders (6-7) on Monday afternoon/evening, Cleveland will go into first, but if they lost, Cincinnati will stay there temporarily.
The Green Bay Packers (11-3) next football game will be home on Saturday afternoon on Christmas Day against the Cleveland Browns (7-6).
The Baltimore Ravens (8-6) next football game will be on the road on Sunday afternoon against the Cincinnati Bengals (8-6).
