I don't know why - Stewie Jan 11, 09:02 14
- The NFL is already the most parity-driven league around, let's water down the playoffs more by adding more average teams? - Will Hunting Jan 11, 09:07 2
  - All those teams I mentioned had a better record then San Diego - Stewie Jan 11, 09:09 1
    - We could expand, add 16 more franchises, and then blow up to a 48 team playoff. Then you'd be sure you had a real champion. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 09:12
- Because when people think "who has the least tedious playoffs and most meaningful regular season in sports", they jump right to the NBA. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 09:05 10
  - It wouldn't be any longer, just 8 games on what is wild card weekend instead of 4 -- nm - Stewie Jan 11, 09:11 9
    - When you showcase mediocre football teams as your cream of the crop (as the playoffs indicate), they should actually be better than ya know middle - Will Hunting Jan 11, 09:15 4
      - They shouldn't have division champs then - Stewie Jan 11, 09:24 3
        
        We're simply defending over your inferior idea. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 09:26 2
        
        Oh, I thought you were on my side adding nonsense to Will's argument to drag him down -- nm - Stewie Jan 11, 09:32 1
        
        I could see how you would think that, since your side needed no additional nonsense. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 09:33
    - All that matters is that you find the best team. The best team will be in the top 12. - TFox Jan 11, 09:13 3
      - One and done playoffs are an awful way of finding the best team - Stewie Jan 11, 09:22 2
        
        They could replace it with a 5 event competition, including rock paper scissors lizard Spock, the turkey slap, and a bake off. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 09:25
        
        hahaha -- nm - J Jan 11, 09:23
