How do they do tiebreakers.

We've beat Miami , Miami's beat New England, New England's beat us.

How do they do a tiebreaker for that? Division record next?

Yup. Division record then I think it goes by Conference record.

Eventually it can get to points scored for and against. If it gets that far, we're history ;)

Here are the rules:

TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION

If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.

Two Clubs
1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, if applicable.
5. Best net points in division games.
6. Best net points in all games.
7. Strength of schedule.
8. Best net touchdowns in all games.
9. Coin toss.


Three or More Clubs
(Note: If two clubs remain tied after third or other clubs are eliminated during any step, tie breaker reverts to step 1 of the two-club format).
1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs).
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
5. Best net points in division games.
6. Best net points in all games.
7. Strength of schedule.
8. Best net touchdowns in all games.
9. Coin toss.

So if the season were to end today:

1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs).
Miami 1-1
Buffalo 1-1
New England 1-1
All tied up.

2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
New England 2-1
Miami 2-2
Buffalo 1-2

New England wins the div, then Miami, then Buffalo.
