Because the tiebreaking procedures specify “best won-lost-tied percentage” in all of their record-based steps, this site uses that method for 0-x or x-0 records (so, for example, 1-0 = 2-0). Many sites (including the NFL’s own) choose to use a “games-back” logic, so 2-0 > 1-0, deviating from the official procedures. This can result in discrepancies between sites.

This discrepancy is ultimately inconsequential because at the end of the season, the same number of games will have been played at all steps for the tied teams.
