Same thing that happens if it's tied 77-77. Sudden-Death Overtime. One 15-minute period. First team to score wins. If neither team scores, it's a tie. But, in the playoffs, I think they just keep playing if neither team scores, with additional 15-minute overtime periods. Because you can't have a tie in the playoffs.
What happens if every team in the NFL goes 8-8 during the same season?
It would depend on which games they won, how much they won by, etc., etc. The NFL has an elaborate tie-break procedure for these sort of incidents. Every team plays 6 divisional games, 6 conference (not-division), and 4 non-conference games. Within a division, the first tie-break is divisional record. So, if one team went 6-0 in the division, but 2-8 in all the other games, they would be the division winner. There are actually 12 levels of tie-breakers, though historically it's never had to get past the fifth level (Strength of Victory) for any playoff berth. Ultimately, if all 256 games finished in a 3-3 tie, the playoffs would be determined by coin flip

What was the Worst record ever to make playoffs?
(3-13) in division would be the worst record a team can have and still possibly make the playoffs. As of January 3, 2011, the 2010 Seattle Seahawks are in the 2010 NFL playoffs with a 7-9 record.Not only is this the worst record to make the playoffs, it is the worst record to win a division as well. Although, it is possible to have every team in a division go 3-13. 0 wins, 10 losses, and 6 ties (0-10-6) or 3 wins and 13 losses (3-13). In the first instance, every team in the same division would have to tie each of its 3 division opponents twice, and lose all 13 non-division games. All 4 teams in the division would then have the same record (0-10-6), and a tie-breaker would determine the division champ. In the 2nd instance, every team in the same division would have to split 1-1 with each of its 3 division opponents and lose all 13 non-division games. All 4 teams in the division would then have the same record (3-13), and a tie-breaker would determine the division champ.
Can you win your division an still make playoffs with a losing record?
