Three teams have made the NFL playoffs with losing records, two in 1982 when the schedule was only 9 games. The Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns were 4-5 that year; both were the eighth seed in their conference.

The first non-strike team to make the playoffs with a losing record is the 2010 Seattle Seahawks, who were 7-9. Despite being the butt of jokes and being pitted against the defending Super Bowl champions in the first round of the playoffs, they had home field advantage due to winning their division and beat the Saints 41-36 in one of the biggest upsets in NFL playoff history.

Good dribbling and good shooting, good passing, good defence, great blocking and top rebounding skills as well as running and jumping skills.

Basketball is a very complex game, taking many hours of learning and practice of the many skills involved. The ability to do these effectively along with having some natural athletic ability will almost always ensure that you are very competitive in each game.

How do you create a nba playoff bracket?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are many differnet ways to score. One way to do it is give one point for ever correctly picked match-up. Then another point, or a couple points, for a correct final four, then an extra couple for predicting the correct finals. And as a tie breaker, you can do one of three things. You can have each person pick the total amount of points scored in the championship, or choose the individual scores for each team, or the difference in score between the two schools.
