The New Orleans Saints are the only NFC South team to have won during Week 15, but they aren’t on top of the division standings — just yet. They’ve got new life after their division-rivals each lost on Sunday, including the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who lost badly to the visiting Cincinnati Bengals in a massive second-half collapse.

New Orleans took care of business with the Atlanta Falcons. The Carolina Panthers couldn’t get it done against the Pittsburgh Steelers. So what’s the state of the NFC South? Check the latest standings and playoff odds:
