NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION Week 14 Other games (Pats on a bye)


These rules are terrible. It used to be conference record first. Now it’s a mess.
im not sure conference record was ever first in a tie breaker... division maybe, but not conference
 
because it doesn't fit his argument?

It doesn't make sense that if all the teams in a 3 or 4 way tie did not participate in a H2H with one of the other teams for that team to get screwed.

@MAC10 disagree all you want... doesnt make you right... the criteria list literally says Head to Head as the first tie breaker under 3 (or more) clubs

team a beats team b
team c beats team b
team b loses the tie breaker...

then its applied to team a and team c
 
Parsons will be an Hof

W-L percentage among the tie breaking teams is the rule. Shrug.

If the Pats beat the Titans and Titans somehow end up seeded higher than us anyway even with the same record- that sounds more unfair to me.

He looks so good that i think so
 
Hope to see a game switch, this is ridiculous

when they went from 3 divisions to 4 divisions... still dont understand why conference record would have been the first tie breaker instead of division

Right.

Pats 1-0
Titans 1-1
Chiefs 0-1

Seems obvious to me who should win the tiebreaker here.
