NFL Playoffs Proposal

Sure it's possible; you just don't get any points for it. 8-P

There have been arguments made that the playoffs should be a straight seeding of the best six from each conference. That would take care of the original concern. A couple of years ago though, the NFC West would have been a lonely division...!

Yeah that would be the best and ideal solution to the problem. That would be similar system that used in the Australian Football League, whereby teams are seeded 1-8 based on their record, as there's no divisions or conferences just the one league.

But there's a reason, Pnatt, that up to a Billion People have access to watching the Super Bowl, yet most people couldn't name an Aussie Football team And what is that reason?

Uhhh, the fact that the Chinese government wanted them to play in their Olympic stadium, the fact that combined, the league earns more than a lot of contries each year, and who says the bye is controversial? The in season bye is necessary so players don't severely injur themselves, and the playoff bye is standard tournament form.

What does this have to do with the playoff seedings? Nothing. You're saying how great the NFL playoff format is over the AFL format. What exactly is your problem with the AFL playoff format? And why were you talking about the Chinese government for?

But by establishing consistancy in the regular season, you set up as fair of a regular season, and make the playoffs with little controversy. The seeding is redone after each round, so after the first round that isn't a problem. But for the Wild card round, it is how it is because they idea is that if you can't be the best out of 3 other teams you play a total of 6 times, then you shouldn't get to play at home, and in an ideal NFL season, most teams will be about .500 so it shouldn't end up to be that big of a problem.
