The Philadelphia Eagles and Cincinnati Bengals played the last tie in the NFL regular season (November 16, 2008 - the game ended at 13-13).
That is the 5th tie breaker used by the NFL in breaking ties to determine a division winner and the 4th or 5th tie breaker used in breaking ties to determine a wild card winner (4th if 2 teams are tied and 5th if 3 or more teams are tied). The total wins and losses of the teams the tied teams defeated are added up and whichever tied team defeated teams with the higher combined winning percentage wins the tie breaker.
Yes. There have been 12 NFL games that ended in a 3-3 tie, the last being in 1937 between the New York Giants and Chicago Bears.
No, there are usually tie breakers.
November 7, 1943 between the Detroit Lions and New York Giants.
In the NFL, teams are ranked in the standings based on their win-loss record. A team earns 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie, and 0 points for a loss. Teams are then ranked within their division based on their total points. In case of a tie, other factors like head-to-head record, conference record, and strength of schedule are considered to determine the ranking. The top teams from each division and a few wild card teams with the best records make it to the playoffs.
When NFL teams from the same division finish with the same record, there are a number of tie breakers that are applied. In order, they arehead-to-head recordrecord against teams in their divisionrecord against common opponentsrecord against teams in their conferencestrength of victories (win-loss percentage of all teams the respective team has beaten)strength of schedulebest ranking of teams in the conference for points scored and allowedbest ranking of all teams for points scored and allowedmost net points in common gamesmost net points in all gamesmost net touchdownscoin flipFor teams in the same division with the same win-loss record, the NFL goes down the list of these tiebreakers until the tie is broken. For example, in 2011, the Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers, and Oakland raiders all finished 8-8. so to determine who wins the division title the above tie breakers were used. All 3 of the teams, were 2-2 against each other, so tiebreaker 1 doesn't break the tie. All 3 teams were 3-3 in the division, so tiebreaker 2 doesn't break the tie either. However, the Denver Broncos had the best record among common opponents, so they won the division on tiebreaker 3.
nooooooo
Yes, the Philadelphia Eagles and Cincinnati Bengals played the last tie in the NFL regular season (November 16, 2008 - the game ended at 13-13).
Lol, it's called a tie c:
In the NFL, teams are ranked in the standings based on their win-loss record. The team with the most wins is ranked higher than teams with fewer wins. In case of a tie, other factors like head-to-head record, divisional record, and strength of schedule are considered to determine the rankings. The top teams in each division make the playoffs, along with a few wild card teams with the best records.
A score of say 2 2 between teams is a draw which is the equivalent of a tie
There can not be a tie at the end of the regular time period of the game. If there is, the teams play overtime. If neither team scores in overtime (15 minutes) in regular season, the game ends in a tie. There are no ties in the playoffs.
