How this tracker works

Open a group to see its teams. Tap a team badge for the full name, record and explanation. Records are wins–losses–ties.

Tap a team for its record and status explanation. Status changes follow refreshed game results and standings, not animations or predictions.

NFL position follows the provider’s conference playoff seed, including its tiebreak order. Only an explicit clinch or elimination flag confirms a team’s fate. No seed means the race is shown as open.

Data: ESPN standings and scoreboards. Independent tracker; not an official league product.

Team-group layout inspired by the reference from The Fourth Quarter. Wishbone’s classifications and data updates are independent.

The server checks for new results every 10 minutes.
