Let's look at this, team-by-team to see where each will end up.

#1 is unquestionably the Kansas City Rams...undefeated through 15, they'll likely end without a loss.
#2 is locked up by the Manitoba Aftershocks...they won't lose to the Wrath and hold the tiebreaker against Northern.
#3 is locked up by the Northern Polar Bears...even if they were to lose to Tradewest, they'd hold the tiebreaker against St. John's
#4 is locked up by the St. John's Salty Dogs...they're two wins ahead of 5th with only one game to go.

Here's where it begins to get interesting. As jloescher3 identified above, we do know which four teams will make up the #5 - #8 seeds, but not where they'll fit. Here's where I predict things will end up and why.

#5 - Thunder Bay Bloodhounds (10-6) - In facing the Hornepayne Northern Railers (currently 1-14) they have the easiest game of the four remaining teams. Though they'd lose a head-to-head tiebreaker against Brooklyn, the Boyz would have to beat the Rams for them to finish tied...I don't think that'll happen. That said, they do win the head-to-head against the Mules by virtue of winning the "Battle of Thunder Bay" (30-6) back in Week 5. They'll most likely face the St. John's Salty Dogs in Round 1.

#6 - Thunder Bay Mules (10-6) ► or ◄ Tadoussac Whalers (9-7) - It's really this simple: Whichever team wins the Week 16 match-up between the Mules and Whalers lays claim to the #6 seed and will face the Northern Polar Bears in Round 1...the loser drops to #8 and will get the Kansas City Rams instead. If Thunder Bay wins, they'll have a better record than both Brooklyn and Tadoussac...but lose the tiebreaker with the Bloodhounds. If Tadoussac wins they'll share identical 9-7 records with the Boyz and Mules, but since they beat them both in the regular season they'd win the first tiebreaker.

#7 - Brooklyn Boyz (9-7) - These standings are entirely predicated on a Week 16 loss to the Rams. Should they beat Kansas City...forget everything else I've written and pencil these guys in at the #5 seed. Moving ahead with an assumed loss, they'll slot at #7 one of two ways. If Thunder Bay wins, they'll be the only team with a 9-7 record...one behind the Mules and one ahead of the Whalers. If Tadoussac wins, they'll fall behind the Whalers who beat both Brooklyn and Thunder Bay...but ahead of the Mules because of their head-to-head win. Barring an unforeseen win against the Rams...these Boyz should start getting ready to face Manitoba in Round 1.

#8 - Thunder Bay Mules (9-7) ► or ◄ Tadoussac Whalers (8-8) - Hopefully you've gotten this from the posts above. Winner of the Week 16 match-up goes to #6, loser to #8.

Now, if (a) Hornepayne upsets the Thunder Bay Bloodhounds and/or (b) the Brooklyn Boyz beat the Rams...disregard everything written. Multiple tiebreaker scenarios could come into play...

The east is a f*cked up. So many damn teams so close and fighting for the last 3 play-off berths.

Man o man.....tough tough last game of the season.

It was nowhere near as confusing as SEAPL was.......take a look over there.....it took me a couple hours to figure those ones out
