Did the saints get home advantage due to being an 8 points better off on differential? I only ask as both the Saints and Rams went 13-3.
The Saints beat the Rams during the regular season
Cheers, I thought that was the other scenario, wasnāt sure which was the deciding factor.
No problem buddy, you devloping an interest? Now is the best time to do so
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
Probably best I donāt develop to much of an interest as I have enough sports I follow in pretty big detail haha.
I do like to keep tabs on whatās happening and have a basic understanding of pretty much most sports though.
Itās my first season following NFL properly, I gots loadsa questions
Whoās your team?
More so when younger but Iāve always been able to watch pretty much any sport. Kabaddi is my favourite semi obscure sport.
Iām a Ravens fan via a reasonably legit family connection.
And Iām still not yet certain on how they work out who plays who
Is it 6 games vs same division opponents, 4 games vs each team in one AFC division (selected how?), 4 games vs each team in one NFC division (selected how?) and then 2 pulled out of a hat or something
6 games against divisional opponents
4 games against a division in the opposite conference. For example, the NFC West teams played against the AFC West teams this season. There are 4 divisons in each conference so itās rotated every four years
4 games against a division within your own conference, For example, Within the NFC conference the NFC West teams played against the NFC North teams this season. There are 4 divisions in each conference so itās rotated every four years.
2 games against teams that finished in the same position as your team did last season. For example, Rams won the NFC West last season, Saints won the NFC South and Eagles NFC East. The Rams played them both this season due to finishing first last year.
Itās a very efficient system
So those final 2 are always teams within the same conference?
Yes, one on the road and one at home Against a team which similarly placed last season, for the Ravens this season I believe that was the Titans and Bills
Oh, come on, the drama of the NBA is the only reason I hold interest in the NBA. I tend to watch the highlights and NBA news more than the games though. Much prefer college bball.
Ok, here we go. Iām feeling the nerves big time here. One win away from the Superbowl
Letās go Rams.
Saints ahead by a bees dick
It comes down to this
Greg the leg please
OT lets go, Starting to get worried Goff isnāt the guy
These 2 teams are much better than anyone in the AFC.
Itās a bit shit that itās always like this, Patriots coast past bums every year to make it to the superbowl while the other teams kill eachother to make it basically.
WE DID IT
OH MY FUCKING GOD, IāM FUCKING CRYING WE FUCKING DID IT
RAMS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL IN MY LIFETIME
I canāt Breathe
Only wanted saints to win because I hate Stan Kroenke
