Yo man, me and my guys have a Madden League. And last year we were using a different system to determine divisions, conferences, and ties. But this year we done switched up and started using the NFL's real tiebreaker and division/conference seeding system. Which has caused some confusion. Last season things like yards and production broke ties. Now its based on your division record and for the playoffs its based on your conference record to bust the tie open. The question is, can one division send three teams to the playoffs and take both Wild Card spots?
The scenario is that this is the last week of our League's season and the Bengals, Ravens, and Steelers have the same records. Cincy is in first cuz of their record against the AFC North. The Ravens and Steelers are tied for second place. Both those teams have the best records in the AFC out of all the 2nd place teams and everybody else who arent in 1st place. So could they all make it yall?

The simple answer to your question is, yes. both wild card teams may come from the same division. The other playoff spots are the winners of each division.
If there are two teams in the same division with better records than any of the other teams in the conference, then they will get the wildcard spots.

Yes, it happened a lot with the NFC east back in the day. The Giants , Cowboys, Eagles or Redskins were always in the playoffs together.

Yes any team can get the Wild Card, there is no rules on who can and can't win.
