The calendar has flipped over to 2017, but in the NFL it's still 2016. New Year's Day marks the final day of est 2016 regular season, and all 32 teams in the league are in action.
The Packers and Lions will of course play the game with the biggest impact on the postseason, as the winner of that contest earns the NFC North title and a home playoff game. However, the other 15 games still have plenty to offer in terms of drama and excitement.
