The playoff standings are getting as crazy as a wild turkey prior to Thanksgiving, which is fitting since the league is hitting that point in the calendar. The NFC West is as unpredictable as ever, with the Seattle Seahawks taking over the division lead thanks to their win over the Arizona Cardinals.
The NFL playoff race is heating up heading into Thanksgiving, and here's how the playoff picture is shaping up before Monday Night Football in Week 12: DIVISION LEADERS 1.
