TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION

If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.

Two Clubs

Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
Strength of victory.
Strength of schedule.
Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best net points in common games.
Best net points in all games.
Best net touchdowns in all games.
Coin toss
Three or More Clubs

(Note: If two clubs remain tied after third or other clubs are eliminated during any step, tie breaker reverts to step 1 of the two-club format).

Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs).
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
Strength of victory.
Strength of schedule.
Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best net points in common games.
Best net points in all games.
Best net touchdowns in all games.

[quote=Mattyk;979476]Congrats to Forbath for setting a NFL record with 17 straight to start his career![/quote]Team's best acquisition of the season, at least based on what it cost to get him.

I'm happy we win next week and we get the division and Cowboys are out.

[QUOTE=FRPLG;979522]why?

they'd be 9-7.

2-2 against us and NY

If cowboys beat us both 9-7 both 4-2 in division, next tiebreaker is common opponents win percentage and cowboys would win that tiebreaker.

Ahhh...duh...on me. thought they were 2-3

[quote=The Goat;979459]Can't say enough about the solid coaching/play-calling today. Kyle never got cute, never tried to do too much. With RG surprisingly hindered with that knee I didn't see a single read-option and the pistol was used sparingly. If there was a league award for most improved coordinator (offense and defense), the Redskins' Kyle Shanahan and Jim Haslett would be finalists.

Go Ravens!!!![/quote]

I actually thought the play-calling wasn't as good as it has been recently

2-2 against us and NY
3-3 in divison[/quote]They would be 4-2 in the division. We're ahead of them in all the tiebreakers right now, but they can change that by beating us.

EDIT: beaten

Re: Redskins 27 Eagles 20 post game thread
 

If the giants lose, we just need Minnesota to lose to GB, bears to lose today or next week against the lions then we clinch a spot

[QUOTE=FRPLG;979517]So if NY loses don't we win division today? Best either Dal and NY could then do is tie us and we'd have better division record.[/QUOTE]

I'm not sure why...but even if both the Cowboys lose and the Giants lose, the Redskins have to beat the Cowboys next week to win the NFC East and make the playoffs.

If the Redskins lose next week, they are out of the playoffs.

If the Cowboys beat the Redskins next week, the Cowboys win the NFC East, the Giants are the Wild Card, and the Redskins are out of the playoffs.

All or nothing next week for the Redskins!

No we can still get the WC

Re: Redskins 27 Eagles 20 post game thread
 

I think there's a couple scenarios where the Redskins can back in with a loss next week, but none where they can win the NFC East.
