The teams with the best record in each division, the division winners, qualify for the playoffs. The remaining two playoff spots go to the "Wild Card" teams. These are the next two best teams. These teams are then seeded 1 to 6 based on record, with the wild card team automatically being the 5th and 6th seeds.The first and second seeded team get a first round bye, meaning they do not play a game in the first week of the post season. The third seed plays the sxth seed and the 4th seed plays the fifth seed in the first week, which s known as the Wild Card Round.
