| *Wild-Card qualifier for playoffs;
#Top playoff seed in conference |
| Seattle was second Wild Card ahead of
Denver based on better division record (5-3 to Broncos' 3-5)
after Cleveland was eliminated from three-way tie based on
head-to-head record (Seattle and Denver 2-1 to Browns' 0-2).
Seattle did not play the L.A. Raiders in the divisional
playoffs because, from 1970-1989, two teams from the same
division could not meet prior to the conference championship
game. New England finished ahead of Buffalo based on
head-to-head sweep (2-0). Baltimore finished ahead of N.Y.
Jets based on better conference record (5-9 to Jets' 4-8). San
Diego finished ahead of Kansas City based on head-to-head
sweep (2-0). Green Bay finished ahead of Chicago based on
better record against common opponents (5-5 to Bears' 4-6)
after Minnesota was eliminated from three-way tie based on
conference record (Chicago 7-7 and Green Bay 6-6 to Vikings'
4-8). |
