Tiebreakers[f]
Kansas City clinched the AFC West division over Oakland based on head-to-head sweep. Houston clinched the AFC South division title over Tennessee based on record vs. division opponents. Tennessee finished ahead of Denver based on head-to-head victory. Baltimore finished ahead of Indianapolis based on record vs. conference opponents. The New York Jets finished ahead of San Diego based record vs. common opponents — the Jets' cumulative record against Cleveland, Indianapolis, Kansas City and Miami was 1–4, while San Diego's cumulative record against the same four teams was 0–5. When breaking ties for three or more teams under the NFL's rules, they are first broken within divisions, then comparing only the highest ranked remaining team from each division.
