Abstract: Abstract When ten teams from the American Football League (AFL) joined the National Football League (NFL) in 1970, the NFL changed its Eastern and Western Conference to respectively American and National Conference (AFC and NFC). Each conference included five teams in the Eastern Division (ED) and four each in the Central Division (CD) and Western Division (WD). In addition, the NFL expanded to an eight-team playoff, which consisted of three division champions from each conference and a wild-card team who finished in second place with the highest winning percentage in the regular season.
