2015 NFL Playoff Machine
What exactly would it take? Well, the 49ers would have to win all of their final four games, finishing at 8-8, have the Seattle Seahawks lose all of their final four games, and then get some help in the form of losses from another playoff contender.

The 49ers will finish off the season at the Cleveland Browns, home against the Cincinnati Bengals, at the Detroit Lions, and end hosting the St. Louis Rams.
