Have 3 teams from the same division ever made the NFL playoffs?

Yes, you would have one division winner, and 2 wild card teams that could possibly be from the same division.

Answer 5

It is not possible to have four teams in the same division in the playoffs. The way the playoffs are structured, with each conference having 4 division winners and two wild card teams in the playoff mix, means that the maximum numbers of teams from any one division would be three.

This has happened several times since the NFL went to its current playoff structure in 1992. The most recent is this year, 2013, when three teams from the AFC West qualified for the playoffs. The division winner and overall number 1 seed Denver Broncos, the fifth seed Kansas City Chiefs and the number 6 seed, the San Diego Chargers.

2007 when the Colts won the AFC South and the Titans and Jaguars were wild cards and the Cowboys won the NFC East and the Redskins and Giants were wild cards.
