Heading into the final week of the NFL season, there is still plenty to be decided. Playoff spots are on the line, and divisions are yet to be finalized. Week 18 is stacked with significant postseason implications, making it a loaded week of entertainment.
The NFC South is up for grabs, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Carolina Panthers not just for the division, but also for their playoff lives.
Then, similarly, the Baltimore Ravens will travel to face the Pittsburgh Steelers. The winner of this AFC North clash will not only claim the division but also the No. 4 seed in the playoffs.
Aside from those four organizations, every other playoff team is finalized; some seedings are still to be decided.
Here is everything that you need to know about the NFL's Week 18 schedule, including the plan for "Thursday Night Football."

There is no "Thursday Night Football" game in Week 18 of the NFL regular season.
