That actually makes so much sense now, I have been looking at other NFL explained videos but none of them explain the Superbowl and how to get into it.
It's theoretically possible that an entire division could split their games with each other and lose to every other interdivisional opponent. The entire division would tie at 3-13, someone would not only win the tie breaker and make the playoffs, but actually have a home game in the first round to a superior opponent. This exact scenario may never happen, but the Seattle Seahawks did this at 7-9 a few years ago.
@@jakecontos7626 The Buccs in the playoffs and the Lions in the playoffs, but only by default. If it wasn't for divisions, none of this would be a possibility. I mean, look at the AFC East. Teams at or above .500 might NOT make it to the playoffs. Honestly, my jab at the Lions doesn't have any serious hate. It was for comedic purposes only. I just posted that comment when they won only one game last year. I do hope the Lions make it. It was nice to see new teams make it to the big dance last year and I think it would be nice to see it again. Dynasties can sometimes be overrated.
Both, but it’s 11 other games now. 4 of them come from a different division in the same conference, 2 come from the other two divisions in the same conference that have the same placing as your team (ex: if you placed 2nd in your division, you’d play against the other two teams in that conference that placed second that you haven’t played against yet). Another 4 games come from an entire division of the opposite conference, while the last game comes from a different division from the opposite conference with a similar standing to your team. If that makes sense
@@hachisthoughts now there’s 17 games. Instead of there being 2 conference leaders with a bye, there’s only 1. There’s also 7 playoff teams instead of 6. Do u watch nfl
that quote at the end " the biggest annual american sports event in the world" should be " the biggest annual global broadcast for an american sports championship event"
So the ''wildcard teams'' are just the teams that came 2nd in their conference? & they have to play the playoffs for a spot in the superbowl? Along with the teams that finished 1st?
sometimes in the overall rating those wild card teams could be 3rd and 4th, better positions that other teams who are number 1 in their sub group so they deserve a chance at the SB too (I'm new in this so I could be wrong)
I'm a Man United fan and looking for a new sport to help take my mind off the crisis that my team are in lol. Plus I accidentally signed up to Dazn for a year and stuck with the subscription so may aswell watch some NFL. I like the look of the Ravens.@EpicCats5000
EliTheJerk123 I don't know, I'm saying we could go to the Divisional Playoff game but that's it. Lol and no I don't want to be that biased though it is possible they could go to the Championship.
I know I'm late, but the team with the highest record gets the 1st seed, 2nd highest record gets 2nd seed, and so on. The video is already outdated though because now the 4 division champions from both conferences make the playoffs plus the 3 teams with the highest record from each conference instead of 2 teams. In the 1st round of the playoffs, the 7th seed will play the 2nd, 6th will play the 3rd, and 5th will play the 4th. That's seeding for ya. It's just a way to rank teams to determine who they play in the playoffs.
@@thedragon9326 not true. You said that in your conference if you have the 2nd best record you get the second seed. That’s not true. Let’s say the cowboys were to go 14-3, and the giants were to go 13-4. The giants may have the 2nd best record in the nfc. But they would be the 5th seed
Why does the divisional rival of the National East have to play the wild card team of the National North? Shouldnt the leader of the National North have to play the wild card of its own division? How come they get an automatic pass and get to rest longer?
Ok. As Both A NASCAR Fan, And NFL Fan, Since 2004. The NFL Can Keep The Playoffs. But, As For NASCAR, They Need To Seriously Be Consistent, By Not Only Getting Rid Of The Elimination Format For The NASCAR Xfinity Series And The Camping Truck Series, But Also, Go Back To The Original 2004-2013 Chase Format With The 2004-2006 10 Driver/2004-2013 10 Chase Race Format For The Cup Series, And That's It.
The vertical flag at the end is being displayed incorrectly. The union should be to the left, even when vertical (although some exceptions) this is not one. Do better.
Arizona and St. Louis Cardinals used to be in the NFC East. Atlanta, New Orleans, and St. Louis Rams used to be in the NFC West. Tampa Bay used to be in the AFC West and then the NFC Central. Kansas City is in the AFC West, although that isn't too bad. Baltimore Colts were in the NFL Western Conference for many years; so were Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, and Green Bay. The NFL is not the best at using a map.
Why are there so many haters from the outside world? Just because you dont get it doesnt mean its "stupid". You are making yourself more ignorant by saying things as such.
So basically you're trying to say that the Steelers are going to lose to the Ravens of course and the Ravens going to lose Anna Patriots no way in hell we put fear in the Patriots Hall we made them piss on themselves Tom Brady was scared of a rookie
You can have 3 teams from the same division make the playoffs though, as it is the 2 next best teams. That's why the Rams were still in the playoff hunt up until last week even though they could not take 2nd place from Seattle or San Fran, but could take the 6th seed from the Vikings
world champions? lmao what a joke... unless a tournament is played between other teams from other countries, the term World Champs can never be taken seriously

So the another 10 games to complete their schedule are from the same conference or are they from both conferences? And if so, how are they determined?

0:36 "meet in the biggest annual American sports event in the world"? Okay.
They have updated the wild card spots from 2 to 3, which is more potential for playoff hopes. This one is outdated!

How are the panthers in the wild card it sir they won the nfc
Only the top two (now only the winner) gets a bye. The panthers ranked 3rd of 4th in the division leaders.
U do realize this was from 6 years ago right? They were using the playoffs from the 2014-2015 season
Detroit Lions in the playoffs is no hypothetical.
As good of an explanation… I missed the wild cards, who they play ?
Why are there so many haters from the outside world? Just because you dont get it doesnt mean its "stupid". You are making yourself more ignorant by saying things as such.
I get it but don’t see the point of it. I feel like you should have to play every team at least once in a season.

The only thing wrong with this video is that the packers eliminated the cowboys
Cincinnati Bengals got the second best record 🤔

I would be shocked if that happens.

Me: Looking at the thing that says 5 years ago
Also me: Laughs till dies
I honestly think the NFL should change the playoff system to the NBA format.
Jacob I don't know so much about NBA, How's their playoff format?
If they did this a wild card team could possibly play 28 games, assuming all 4 of their playoff games went to game 7. An NFL season is 16 games lol
They wouldn't cause injuries.
It definitely would increase the likelihood of getting an injury. What don't you get about playing 24 extra games, 8 more than a regular NFL season ?
Marcos Baladez No I'm talking about playoff format. Keep the regular season the same amount of games.
That was so rushed for anyone not so familiar with the playoff situation, you can't explain it in 46 seconds totally impossible.
I got it to be fair
Pick more distracting music next time, and make it louder.
