It's only Week 8 of the NFL season, but these nine NFC teams and five AFC teams can forget about the playoffs

Jason La Canfora has already counted these 14 teams out and feels NFC playoff teams are already set

There is still a lot of football to be played. The postseason is a ways off, especially with there now being 17 games instead of 16.

But if last week taught us anything it's that, once again, this is a league of haves and have nots. Yeah, parity is real, but there is still a substantial gap between the best and worst teams in this league, as the slew of blowout games in Week 7 spoke to. We continue to see some huge betting lines on NFL games and I suspect that remains the case moving forward.

There are a host of teams that are simply not ready for prime time, even though every team is now guaranteed of at least one appearance at night, and it's not too early to start closing the book on many teams for 2021. It's essentially over for them. Whatever meaningful football games they are playing this season, have already taken place, and although it's not yet Halloween they are playing for draft position from here on out.
