The Denver Broncos claimed the final spot in the NFL playoffs on Sunday as a 38-0 win over a weakened Kansas City Chiefs ended their nine-year absence from the post-season.

Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! The end of the NFL season is always crazy and this year has been no different. Here's a short list of what we've seen go down over the past 24 hours: The Chiefs forgot to show up for their game in Denver The Vikings forgot to show up to Detroit on Sunday night The Patriots fired Jerod Mayo The Jaguars fired Doug Pederson The playoff schedule came out and every NFC game is a rematch from the regular season.

Bucky Brooks ranks all 14 teams entering the playoffs, with 13 of them looking to stop Kansas City from winning a third straight title.

The Athletics Robert Mays ranks the NFL's head coaching vacancies. NFL Network's Mike Yam breaks down the order of picks in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft in the wake of Week 18 in the 2024 season.

The first five picks in the 2025 NFL Draft are set. With the New England Patriots winning on Sunday, the Tennessee Titans are on the clock, followed by the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Patriots and the Jacksonville Jaguars to round out the top five.

The Patriots could have clinched the top selection for the first time since 1993, but their victory, combined with losses by Tennessee, Cleveland, and the Giants, improved their record to 4-13 and dropped their pick.
