Duh. A 3-sided coin.

1st flip is between Atl and KC for #3.

Next flip will be between Atl and Oak for #4 if KC wins the first one.

There is a three-way tie for the third pick between Kansas City, Atlanta and Oakland. The teams will be involved in potentially a two-tiered coin flip. The first flip, between Kansas City and Atlanta, will determine the 3rd pick. If Atlanta wins that flip, Kansas City will pick 4th and Oakland 5th. If Kansas City wins that flip, a second coin flip, between Oakland and Atlanta, will determine the 4th and 5th picks.

You are all mixed up.

Atlanta and Oakland flip for the three slot and if Oakland wins, KC and Atlanta flip for fourth. If Atlanta wins the first flip, they get three, Oakland four, and finally, KC at five.

cmh6476 · 12-31-2007, 10:27 AM

wouldnt atlanta be first then since they were 1-5 in division, and kc and oakland were both 2-4?

and the chiefs had a worse conference record than the raiders, if that is how it plays out...

Anyone know what time this takes place?

With our luck, Atlanta will be delegated as "heads", Oakland as "tails", and KC as "sides".

But seriously: Rock - Paper - Scissors would be the best way to settle it.

this is from nfl.com:

TIE-BREAKING PROCEDURE FOR SELECTION MEETING

If two or more clubs are tied in the selection order, the strength-of-schedule tie breaker is applied, subject to the following exceptions for playoff clubs:

1. The Super Bowl winner is last and the Super Bowl loser next-to-last.

2. Any non-Super Bowl playoff club involved in a tie shall be assigned priority within its segment below that of non-playoff clubs and in the order that the playoff clubs exited from the playoffs. Thus, within a tied segment a playoff club that loses in the Wild-Card game will have priority over a playoff club that loses in the Divisional playoff game, which in turn will have priority over a club that loses in the Conference Championship game. If two tied clubs exited the playoffs in the same round, the tie is broken by strength of schedule.

If any ties cannot be broken by strength of schedule, the divisional or conference tie breakers, whichever are applicable, are applied. Any ties that still exist are broken by a coin flip.
