Question about NFL positioning

[stackz125]

So right now Seattle and the Rams both are 8-4 but Rams are in first place because they beat seattle earlier in the season. They both play against each other on Dec. 27.
If Seattle wins they are both 1-1.
How does the NFL determine who is number 1 if they both finish with the same record?

Division games do have more weight in the tiebreakers: The first two tie breakers are head-to-head matchups and division record. So if two teams in the division finished 10-6 overall, but one team won all division games and the other lost all of them, the team that won the division games would be the division champ and enter the playoffs.

Tie breaker meaning who has the most div. wins?

Head to head match would be 1-1 in this example.

Let's be honest here, Seattle is fading fast

It won't come down to this

Obviously Wilson has Goff here. No way Ciara would hang with him otherwise.
