- The playoffs consist of four rounds: wild card weekend, division round, conference championships, and the Super Bowl
- From 1933-1966, there were only playoff games when a tie for a division title happened (nine times total)
- From 1967-69, there were four divisions in the NFL, so they held two rounds of playoffs to determine league champion and Super Bowl representative
- The AFL held two divisional championship games: in 1963 and 1968. In 1969, they added the second place team from each of their two divisions for a two round playoff
- Since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, there have been playoffs after every season
