Team records
New to the NFL?
- Seed — seven teams per conference (AFC, NFC) make the playoffs. The four division winners take seeds 1–4 whatever their records; the best three of the rest take seeds 5–7.
- Wild card — seeds 5–7, earned on record without winning the division. Only the No. 1 seed skips the first round (the Wild Card round).
- Tie — a regular-season game still level after a 10-minute overtime ends as a tie, counted as half a win in winning percentage.
