What do they do in the NFL if 2 teams finish tied for a playoff spot?

Question

like if two or more teams finish tied first in a division or wildcard?

Answer 1

The last tiebraker in case of identical wins, loses,scores and competition,is a coin flip  

Answer 2

idk lol

Answer 3

From what I understand, there are other factors involved.  If they end up in a tie, then the # of wins in their division will be a factor.  Its more than just W's and L's.

Answer 4

They look at the record between the two teams, and then they go to each teams divisional record.

Answer 5

They look at the records, they look at the divisional records, they look at the records totaled of the teams they played

Answer 6

They have so many tiebreaker provisions that I do not think it is possible to have a tie.  It could come down to point spread.  But, the list of tiebreakers is mind numbing.  It is maybe not as fair as it could be due to relative strength of schedules; but, it does bring certainty to the playoff issue.
