NFL Tiebreaking rules state that standings shall be deemed by winning percentage & not by record. When teams have the same winning percentage, the following tiebreakers shall be used:
First, any teams that are tied within the same division, must be seperated by the following tiebreakers:
1) Head-to-Head
2) Best winning percentage within division
3) Best winning percentage in common games
4) Best winning percentage in conference games
5) Strength of Victory
After seperating the division teams, we break ties for conference standings....
1) Head-to-Head
2) Best winning percentage within conference
3) Best winning percentage in common games, minimum of 4
4) Strength of victory
That means that if there are 6 teams tied with the same winning percentage and there are 2 from 3 different divisions, the tie breaker for the division must be made first and the losers of the tiebreakers fall down 3 spots and are put in to a tiebreaker with other division tiebreaker losers. So, here are the current OFFICIAL standings.....
