This season is flying by, as we're now 10 weeks into the 2019 NFL campaign. With seven weeks left on the schedule, teams across the country will be ready to make their pushes to reach the postseason.

But who's got the edge in their divisions and in the Wild Card race? Let's take an in-depth look, with teams like the Ravens, Patriots, 49ers and others looking strong already.

NFC West

Monday night's tilt between the Seahawks and 49ers was pure theatre. The two best teams in the division, and arguably the NFC, treated us all to a 27-24 overtime thriller. The Seahawks came away with the win, reminding everyone they can compete to win the division. Whether or not they're able to claim the title, it feels like a safe bet that both Seattle and San Francisco will be playing in January.

NFC East

With the 5-4 Eagles on a bye, the Cowboys had a big chance to make a statement in the division and extend their lead over Philly. Instead, they blew it at home against the Vikings and are now 5-4 themselves. It feels like a safe bet only one of these two teams will make it to the postseason. With seven weeks left, this race is going to come down to the wire.

NFC North

Don't look now, but the Vikings are a serious threat to stun the Packers and win the NFC North this year. Behind Kirk Cousins and the outstanding play of Dalvin Cook, Minnesota is only a half-game back of Green Bay in the standings. Similar to the NFC West, it feels like the NFC North will be sending two teams to the postseason. Circle your calendars for Dec. 23, as the Vikings will host the Packers in a game that could decide the North.

NFC South

Drew Brees' return from his thumb injury didn't go as planned, as the Saints were stunned by the Falcons in Week 10. However, they're still 7-2 and hold a two-game lead on the Panthers in the division. While Carolina is a sneaky team, New Orleans is the favorite to move on to the postseason.

NFC Wild Card

As we stated above, it's looking like two teams from the NFC West and the NFC North will be taking the Wild Card spots. As it stands, the Seahawks hold the top WC position with an 8-2 mark, while the Vikings are at 7-3.

AFC West

Patrick Mahomes is officially back from his knee injury and KC's offense is humming once again. The only problem is the defense couldn't stop Ryan Tannehill and the Titans in a 35-32 loss on Sunday. Regardless, the Chiefs are still at the top of the standings, with the Raiders right behind them. We'll see if KC can hold off Jon Gruden and Co.

AFC East

The New England Patriots enjoyed a bye week after getting embarrassed by the Ravens the week before. The Pats, 8-1 on the year, are overwhelming favorites to win the division and are expected to go on another serious Super Bowl run. As for the 6-3 Bills, they hold the top Wild Card position ahead of the 5-4 Steelers.

AFC North

What else needs to be said here other than Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens are looking like the best team in the NFL. After taking down the Pats, Jackson and Co. looked sensational in a lopsided win over the Bengals. At 7-2, this team is looking dangerous. The Steelers, 5-4, are fresh off a big win over the Rams and hold the No. 2 Wild Card spot.

AFC South

Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans are 6-3 and at the top of the division. The Colts suffered a brutal home loss to the Dolphins, which affected both their division and Wild Card hopes. With Jacoby Brissett injured, Indy could be in big trouble. The Texans are expected to win the division and do so handedly.

AFC Wild Card

After 10 weeks of action, the 6-3 Bills and 5-4 Steelers hold the Wild Card spots right now, but that most certainly could change over the next seven weeks. Teams like the Raiders, Colts, Titans and even Jaguars, who will welcome back Nick Foles this weekend, remain in the hunt.
