playoffs? you kidding me? playoffs?

With eight games (almost) in the books, it's time to look ahead to the playoffs. They begin in week 14, the first weekend in December. Here's how they'll play out:

There will be 6 playoff teams, 3 from each division. The four wild-card teams will be seeded based on overall record, then total points scored.

* No. 1 seed (division champ) -- first-round bye

* No. 2 seed (division champ) -- first-round bye

* No. 3 seed vs. No. 6 seed -- winner plays #2 seed

* No. 4 seed vs. No. 5 seed -- winner plays #1 seed
