December 29, 200322 yr i say YES this was never a problem before realignment, when there was 3 wild cards and 3 divisions. now theres 2 wild cards and 4 divisions. look at this year: in the AFC, the Dolphins and Baltimore had a 10-6 record. the Dolhins play in a tougher division AND beat the Ravens, yet no playoffs i think there should be 1-2 more wild card spots. and im not saying this because im another whining Dolfan
December 29, 200322 yr Author If they had 2 more wild cards, there will be no first round byes. i said you could have 1 more wild card and keep 1 first rd bye intact
December 29, 200322 yr NO. The fact that only 12 of the 32 teams make it to the playoffs is part of what makes the NFL great.
December 29, 200322 yr If we did have more Wild Cards spots, there would be even a higher chance of subpar teams getting into the playoffs and we dont need that.
December 29, 200322 yr If we did have more Wild Cards spots, there would be even a higher chance of subpar teams getting into the playoffs and we dont need that. yeah, but most yrs a team or two misses the playoffs because there is only 2 wild cards

Because they were not good enough to get in, if we had more WC, The First Round of The Playoffs would be The Same As The NBA, easy and predictable to see that The lowest two seeds are almost always bounced. The NFL Playoffs have the ratings they have because all the teams in are deserving not two scrubs who were lucky to get in despite having a 9 - 7 record
