Could the 17th game be up in the air until game 17? A potential play-in game before the playoffs if you will...all within the conference. Some games won't matter, but that's no different than today's regular season schedule.
AFC:
(1)KC (14-2) v (2)BUF (13-3)---winner gets HFA.
(3)PIT (12-4) v (4)TEN (11-5)
(5)BAL (11-5) v (6)CLE (11-5)
(7)IND (11-5) v (8)MIA (10-6)---winner in, loser out?
(9)LV (8-8) v (10)NE (7-9)
(11)LAC (7-9) v (12)DEN (5-11)
(13)CIN (4-11-1) v (14)HOU (4-12)
(15)NYJ (2-14) v (16)JAX (1-15)---the Tank Bowl?

NFC:
(1)GB (13-3) v (2)NO (12-4)
(3)SEA (12-4) v (4)TB (11-5)
(5)LAR (10-6) v (6)CHI (8-8)
(7)ARZ (8-8) v (8)WAS (7-9)
(9)MIN (7-9) v (10)SF (6-10)
(11)NYG (6-10) v (12)DAL (6-10)
(13)CAR (5-11) v (14)DET (5-11)
(15)PHI (4-11-1) v (16)ATL (4-12)

Granted, this was not active for the 2020 season, but if it were KC (14-2) would have played starters v LAC in week 16 to lock up HFA before week 17. This would also solve the issue of who gets 9 home games and who gets 8. Win more and increase your chances of getting that 9th game.
