muddy waters Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I'm not quite clear on this. If the Bills, Jets and Broncos alll finish 10-6, which two teams go to the playoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace Frog Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I believe it's Denver and Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valle7878 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 it would be the Bills and Broncos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 To put it simply...if we win and the Jets OR Broncos lose, we are in the playoffs. All we need is us to beat the Steelers and one of those two teams to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Since you break the tie in division 1st, if we win & Jets lose-Jets are out! Denver is in with a win no matter what-I don't know what the reason is, but Den has a tie breaker over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're both 3-3 in our own division, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're both 3-3 in our own division, I believe. 179293[/snapback] In a head to head tie with Denver the second tie breaker (after Head to Head) is conference record, if we win out and Denver wins out they finish 7-5 and we finish 6-6. In a three way tie, the divional tiebreaker is first and we beat NY by virtue of the common opponent tiebreaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Yeah...that's all. 179297[/snapback] Hey, considering how complicated it was last week, I'd say that winning and one loss from either of those two teams is pretty simple. I have a really good feeling that the Colts are going to beat the Broncos for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawnboy1977 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I'm not quite clear on this. If the Bills, Jets and Broncos alll finish 10-6, which two teams go to the playoffs? 179265[/snapback] This is how the tiebreaker scenarios break down TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined. Two Clubs 1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). 2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. 3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. 4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. 5. Strength of victory. 6. Strength of schedule. 7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. 8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. 9. Best net points in common games. 10. Best net points in all games. 11. Best net touchdowns in all games. Based on this we would have the tiebreaker over the Jets based on #3, common games. The Jets lost to Pittsburgh, and if they lose to STL, we would have the tiebreaker because we beat, or would have beaten those 2 teams if we win this week. TO BREAK A TIE FOR THE WILD-CARD TEAM If it is necessary to break ties to determine the two Wild-Card clubs from each conference, the following steps will be taken. 1. If the tied clubs are from the same division, apply division tie breaker. 2. If the tied clubs are from different divisions, apply the following steps. Two Clubs 1. Head-to-head, if applicable. 2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. 3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four. 4. Strength of victory. 5. Strength of schedule. 6. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. 7. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. 8. Best net points in conference games. 9. Best net points in all games. 10. Best net touchdowns in all games. 11. Coin toss. Based on this, we lose the the tiebreaker to DEN according to #2, conference record. If BUF and DEN win next week, they would have a conf record of 7-5 and ours would be 6-6. So as long as either Jets or Broncos lose next week, and we win, then we will be in the playoffs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
