    It's a post season win, not a playoff game. Everything after the regular season is a post season game, including the pro bowl, but neither is the SB , or the Pro bowl a playoff game

    The Steelers have 0.0%. The other 1% would be split up between the Texans, Bengals and Chargers.

    If you consider PFR to be the authority, the SB is lumped into 'playoffs':

    Playoffs word can be used numerous ways, but in the NFL, and now in college, a playoff system is used to get to the Championship game, or SB. The Championship game as in college, or SB, as in NFL is not the actual playoff games. This is why You never hear the National Championship, or SB referred to as the playoff game, yet you hear all the leading games to decide who is in it as Playoffs. When was the last time You heard a broadcaster, the media to the event , a commercial, or even Your friends, and neighbors say during the National Championship, or SB.....Hey let's watch the final playoff game???
    They all above say......let's watch the SB, or National Championship. Nobody says ,Hey Terry Bradshaw, and C. Noll won 4 playoff rings, they say they won 4 SB rings. So if there is no difference in the playoffs, and SB, or National Championship that is now in college.....why don't they just say playoffs????
    Answer....because there is a difference.

    The Super Bowl and National Championship are considered playoff games, being part of their respective playoff brackets. Being the pinnacle of the playoffs they've been given proper names to distinguish them as such.

    So therefore they aren't playoff games anymore. Again the exact words.....Playoffs can be used in many ways, but since nobody calls the National Championship the last playoff game, or the SB ....the last playoff game, yet all post season games leading up to them as playoff games, I would think that they are a separate.
    No????
    I could be totally wrong here.

    You also call the winner of the AFC and NFC the AFCC and NFCC champions. But it's still a playoff game.

    But it's actually televised as a playoff game. What every commercial about it leading up to it. It will say playoffs, but I have never once seen the SB announced as a playoff game.

    Yes , or No question.....when the playoffs are on, or coming up do they , or don't they call them playoffs, on TV, on the internet, and every media???
    When the SB, or National Championship is coming up, when do they ever announce it as the last playoff game.
    Hell even on the AFC, and NFC Championship it shows playoffs, but I have yet ever once seen during the SB, or National Championship it show .....playoffs. Not once.

    You can call what you want and I have no problem with that....But the super bowl still count in the playoffs stats in the stats book for the head coach,QB or the stats from the other players like sacks,yards,TD,etc.

    I won't argue with you just for that.
