when teams have the same record at the end of the season(such as 10-6) and those teams havent played each other how do they decide who goes to the playoffs.
This is like if both the browns and titans win they will both be 10-6 but the tians would go over the browns why

Record against common opponents. Titans have this one by a game.

Assuming they both win this weekend..

They will both be 7-5 in the AFC...so it comes down to their records against common opponents.

Common opponents -

Cinncy
Houston
Jets
Oakland

The Browns are 3-2 in these games.

The Titans are 4-1.

Titans win.

Titans have to beat the Colts. The Browns have to beat SF. It is going to be a moot question because the Browns will have the better record. Same thing in the NFC where the Redskins have to beat Dallas while the Vikings get to pillage defenseless Denver.

Well first they choose by Conference Record(it happens in this case that is also a tie) then they go to Common opponents, and what they did against them and who has the best record against common opponents. Then after that it goes to division record. It is a complicated system, but I rather have it this way than the BCS Selection process

This has to be a dumb and dumber question. I guess they do like on kickoffs and flip the coin. is the answer. but, you know what, i don't care how they decide. i just don't care anymore.

can a springfield armory match point 45 help you be a better qb? i have a new rash and that motivates me to do something new.
