NFL Tie Breaking (1 Viewer)

My League defaults to NFl tie breaking procedures, the club that I am tied with is tied to the 5th breaker. Is the 5th tie breaker a head to head step or is it overall, I thought it must be a head to head since number nine would be the same thing IF step 5 was not head to head.

Any thoughts?

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 common games.

4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.

5. Strength of victory.

6. Strength of schedule.

7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.

8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.

9. Best net points in common games.

10. Best net points in all games.

11. Best net touchdowns in all games.

 
Strength of Victory is the combined record of the teams you beat. (I.e., It is like "Strength of Schedule" only it does not include teams to which you lost)

It has nothing to do with Margin of victory or Net Points.
