Is The Play Offs A Cup Final?

The question is clear enough, what exactly are the play offs?
Can anyone describe these games any better?

The team finishing top of the league gets a cup, the second place team doesn't so why should the third place team get a cup but they do weird?

Yes it is a cup final and in many ways is better than coming second :?

If you get a cup after a final at Wembley then it has to be a cup final surely.
This is the benefit of coming top or winning the play offs, you get a cup whereas you don't coming second.
I don't think those in charge thought it out well :lolboard:
