Major League Baseball Wild Card Game
The Major League Baseball Wild Card Game is a play - in game which was added to the Major League Baseball postseason in 2012 . The addition keeps the playoff format similar to the three - tiered postseason format used from 1995 through 2011 , but adds a second wild - card team . Two wild - card teams in each league play each other in a single - game playoff after the end of the regular season . The winner of the game advances to face the 1st seeded team in the Division Series . The home team for the wild - card game is the team with the better regular - season record ( 4th Seed ) .
NBA Conference Finals
The National Basketball Association Conference Finals are the Eastern and Western championship series of the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) , a major professional basketball league in North America . The NBA was founded in 1946 as the Basketball Association of America ( BAA ) . The NBA adopted its current name at the start of the 1949 -- 50 season when the BAA merged with the National Basketball League ( NBL ) . The league currently consists of 30 teams , of which 29 are located in the United States and 1 in Canada . Each team plays 82 games in the regular season . After the regular season , eight teams from each of the league 's two conferences qualify for the playoffs . At the end of the playoffs , the top two teams play each other in the Conference Finals , to determine the Conference Champions from each side , who then proceed to play in the NBA Finals .
Playoff history of the New Orleans Saints
With the victory the Saints ran their home playoff winning streak to five dating back to their 2000 victory over the St. Louis Rams , which was also the first playoff win in their history . The Lions continued their streak of playoff futility , having only one playoff win -- their divisional playoff win over the Dallas Cowboys in January 1992 -- in their history since the NFL - AFL merger .

On the 50th anniversary of the 1963 AFL Championship , the Chargers beat Cincinnati 27 - 10 . In the wild card payoff , Denver defeated the Chargers 24 - 17 .
2010–13 Big 12 Conference realignment
After the Big 12 was shut out of the initial College Football Playoff in 2014 despite TCU and Baylor finishing as co-champions at 11 - 1 , there is speculation that the Big 12 might expand back to 12 teams ( or more ) in order to host a conference championship game . Teams speculated to join include Boise State , BYU , Central Florida , Colorado State , and Memphis , as well as schools closer to West Virginia to give the Big 12 a potential East Division such as Cincinnati .

Major League Baseball wild card
From 1969 through 1993 , division leaders in each league advanced to the League Championship Series , with the winners of each LCS meeting in the World Series . However , an expanding number of teams over the years made making the playoffs increasingly difficult . The new system was instituted in 1994 ( but first used in 1995 because a players strike canceled the 1994 playoffs ) when Major League Baseball expanded from two to three divisions per league . In the new three - division leagues , each league had four teams in the playoffs . In addition to the three division winners , a wild - card team made the playoffs as the fourth seed . This was the team with the most wins amongst non-division winners . The wild - card matchup was played in the first round between the League leader in wins and the wild - card team , unless both teams were in the same division , which resulted in the wild card facing the second - best division winner in the league .

2019 AFC Asian Cup
For the first time , the Asian Cup final tournament will be contested by 24 teams , having been expanded from the 16 - team format that was used from 2004 to 2015 . Under this new format , the finalists will contest a group stage consisting of six groups of four teams , followed by a knockout stage of 16 teams . The host nation automatically qualified for the final tournament , while the remaining 23 places were determined among the other 45 national teams through a qualifying competition , running from March 2015 to March 2018 , in which the first two rounds also served as part of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification process for the AFC .

History of the Cleveland Browns
Cleveland managed to right the ship in 1994 . While the quarterback situation had not stabilized , the defense led the league in fewest points allowed . The Browns finished 11 -- 5 , making the playoffs for the first time in five years . The Browns beat the Patriots in a wild - card game , but arch - rival Pittsburgh won a 29 -- 9 victory in the divisional playoff , ending the Browns ' season .
Kansas City Chiefs
Trent Green returned by the end of the season , but struggled in the final stretch , and running back Larry Johnson set an NFL record with 416 carries in a season . Kansas City managed to clinch their first playoff berth in three seasons with a 9 -- 7 record and a bizarre sequence of six losses from other AFC teams on New Year 's Eve , culminating with a Broncos loss to the 49ers . The Indianapolis Colts hosted the Chiefs in the Wild Card playoffs and defeated Kansas City 23 -- 8 . Larry
Monday Night Football
Since the MNF schedule is set in April and can not be changed , the league and network can not guarantee a late season matchup will have any significance or be highly anticipated . Teams thought to be good during the off - season could be out of playoff contention by the middle of the season ; a prime example occurred in 1999 , when the San Francisco 49ers and Atlanta Falcons both entered the season 's final MNF game with 4 -- 11 records . It had seemed like a good pre-season matchup since the Falcons had played in the previous season 's Super Bowl and the 49ers coming into the 1999 season had posted 16 consecutive 10 - win seasons . It is also possible for a team like the 1999 St. Louis Rams not to be scheduled for a Monday night game because of its dismal record the year before , and many other NFL teams ( such as the 2004 San Diego Chargers , with zero primetime games ) have had huge unforeseen turnarounds that result in lack of MNF attention ( these teams generally receive multiple MNF spots the year after their breakout success , which is great for viewers if those teams continue to play well , and not so great if they return to mediocrity or worse ) . However , the forecasting abilities of the NFL 's scheduling officials have exhibited uncanny proficiency . Many MNF games occurring later in the season feature at least one team that is either headed to the playoffs or must win the MNF game to clinch a playoff spot .
NFL playoffs
The 2001 season became the first time that playoff games were played in prime time . Thus , the league no longer had the same restrictions like in 1984 as to when to schedule games in the Pacific Time Zone .
National Football League on television
Fox and CBS each have eight doubleheader weeks during the season during the first 16 weeks , with each network receiving eight , but not necessarily alternating weeks . The networks never run three consecutive weeks of doubleheaders . Fox insists on having a doubleheader on the Sunday it airs a World Series game ( typically Game 4 ) , and uses the featured 4 : 25 game as a lead in for the baseball playoffs ( though in 2014 , Fox did not have a doubleheader on the day it broadcast Game 5 of the 2014 World Series , for the first time since 2005 ) .
2018 FIFA World Cup
Competing countries were divided into eight groups of four teams ( groups A to H ) . Teams in each group played one another in a round - robin basis , with the top two teams of each group advancing to the knockout stage . Ten European teams and four South American teams progressed to the knockout stage , together with Japan and Mexico .
History of the San Diego Chargers
In the 2007 season , the Chargers went 11 - 5 . In the playoffs , the Chargers defeated the Tennessee Titans and the Indianapolis Colts . In the AFC championship game , the Chargers were defeated by the Patriots .
UEFA Champions League
Starting with the 2015 -- 16 edition , the holders of the UEFA Europa League enter the Champions League , initially at the playoff round . The maximum number of teams that an association can field in the tournament has also been increased from four to five .
Playoff history of the New Orleans Saints
The Saints gained 208 rushing yards and 435 total yards , both postseason franchise records , en route to a 27 - 24 victory over the Eagles , allowing them to advance to the conference championship game for the first time in the team 's 40 - year history .
National Football League on television
Several notable games have taken place on Saturdays , including the New England Patriots ' historic comeback from a 22 - 3 deficit in the fourth quarter against the New York Giants in 1996 , a game the same season between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Jets in which the Eagles won in dramatic fashion over the 1 - 13 Jets to keep their playoff hopes alive ( they would eventually qualify ) , the final game at Three Rivers Stadium featuring the Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Redskins in 2000 , another Patriots - Giants matchup in 2007 which saw the Patriots complete a 16 - 0 season and was simulcast on three networks , a 2012 game between the Detroit Lions and the Atlanta Falcons in which Calvin Johnson of the Lions set the NFL record for receiving yards in one season , and a 2015 game between the Eagles and the Redskins to decide the NFC East champion .
Monday Night Football
However , the cable - only playoff game experiment would only last one season . On May 11 , 2015 , it was announced that ABC would simulcast a Wild Card playoff game with ESPN for the 2015 season . This was the first NFL game broadcast nationally on ABC since MNF left the network at the end of the 2005 season . The game , announced by the broadcast team of Tirico , Gruden and Salters , was the first of the 2015 -- 16 NFL playoffs . The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Houston Texans 30 -- 0 . The ESPN / ABC simulcast continued for the 2016 season as well .
Super Bowl
Originally , the game took place in early to mid-January . For Super Bowl I there was only one round of playoffs : the pre-merger NFL and AFL Championship Games . The addition of two playoff rounds ( first in 1967 and then in 1978 ) , an increase in regular season games from 14 to 16 ( 1978 ) , and the establishment of one bye - week per team ( 1990 ) have caused the Super Bowl to be played later . Partially offsetting these season - lengthening effects , simultaneous with the addition of two regular season games in 1978 , the season was started earlier . Prior to 1978 , the season started as late as September 21 . Now , since Labor Day is always the first Monday of September , September 13 is the latest possible date for the first full Sunday set of games ( Since 2002 , the regular season has started with the Kickoff Game on the first Thursday after Labor Day ) . The earliest possible season start date is September 7 .
New Orleans Pelicans
In 16 seasons of play since the original franchise relocated from North Carolina , the Louisiana franchise has achieved an overall regular season record of 610 -- 686 , and has qualified for the playoffs seven times . Their achievements include two playoff series victories and one division title .
2018 NBA Playoffs
The Houston Rockets entered the playoffs with their best regular - season record in franchise history and appeared in their sixth consecutive postseason .
NFL playoffs
In 1932 , the Chicago Bears ( 6 -- 1 -- 6 ) and the Portsmouth Spartans ( 6 -- 1 -- 4 ) were tied at the end of the season with the identical winning percentage of . 857 ( the Green Bay Packers ( 10 -- 3 -- 1 ) had more wins , but a lower winning percentage (. 769 ) as calculated under the rules of the day , which omitted ties ) . An additional game was therefore needed to determine a champion . It was agreed that the game would be played in Chicago at Wrigley Field , but severe winter weather and fear of a low turnout forced the game to be moved indoors to Chicago Stadium . The game was played under modified rules on a shortened 80 - yard dirt field , and the Bears won with a final score of 9 -- 0 . As a result of the game , the Bears had the better winning percentage (. 875 ) and won the league title . The loss gave the Spartans a final winning percentage of . 750 , and moved them to third place behind the Packers . While there is no consensus that this game was a real `` championship '' game ( or even a playoff game ) , it generated considerable interest and led to the creation of the official NFL Championship Game in 1933 .
2018 FIFA World Cup qualification
The qualification structure was the same as the previous five editions . The ten teams played in a league of home - and - away round - robin matches . The top four teams qualified for the 2018 FIFA World Cup , and the fifth - placed team advanced to the inter-confederation play - offs , playing the winners of the Oceania Football Confederation qualifying competition .
UEFA Champions League
Between 2003 and 2008 , no differentiation was made between champions and non-champions in qualification . The 16 top ranked teams spread across the biggest domestic leagues qualified directly for the tournament group stage . Prior to this , three preliminary knockout qualifying rounds whittled down the remaining teams , with teams starting in different rounds .

Cowboys–Redskins rivalry
Now with two games remaining , Washington was 11 - 1 and had clinched the NFC East title . An ensuing loss to the Cowboys ( 34 - 24 ) was meaningless . It was the first time since the NFL went to a divisional format in 1967 that the Cowboys had not won their division .
UEFA Champions League
The top three leagues in Europe are allowed to enter four teams into the Champions League . Michel Platini , the UEFA president , had proposed taking one place from the top three leagues and allocating it to that nation 's cup winners . This proposal was rejected in a vote at a UEFA Strategy Council meeting . In the same meeting , however , it was agreed that the third - placed team in the top three leagues would receive automatic qualification for the group stage , rather than entry into the third qualifying round , while the fourth - placed team would enter the play - off round for non-champions , guaranteeing an opponent from one of the top 15 leagues in Europe . This was part of Platini 's plan to increase the number of teams qualifying directly into the group stage , while simultaneously increasing the number of teams from lower - ranked nations in the group stage .
Monday Night Football
To avoid any scheduling unfairness where , just before the first playoff game , a team may have five days off and others six , there is no Monday night game during the final week of the regular season . From 2003 to 2005 , one game was played on Thursday and another Monday under the Monday Night Football banner . Starting in 2006 , when the series moved to cable , two games are played on the opening Monday night to capitalize on fan interest during `` NFL Kickoff Weekend '' .
