The Facts:
We have arrived at the Week 1. As NFL.com notes, no NFC divisions are clinched. Four teams are battling for a playoff spot in the AFC and they all need help to get into the playoffs.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The best part, from a fantasy perspective: 13 of the NFL's 16 games this week have playoff implications. The only games that don't "matter" for the playoffs are Washington-New York, Houston-Tennessee and Detroit-Minnesota. Every other game includes a team fighting to get into the playoffs, or teams like New England, Denver and Indianapolis that are fighting for playoff seeding. There's a chance that the San Diego-Kansas City game could not mean much depending on the early results Sunday. As previously noted, The Chiefs are locked into the No. 5 seed in the AFC. If you are looking for a team that could rest some starters, Kansas City makes a lot of sense based on Andy Reid's track record as a coach.
