I think six team playoff per conference adds more substance than seven. I don't think there should be 7 teams out of 16.

When people talks stats now it has to be taken with a grain of salt that it was done with an extra game played compared to the people that they are comparing them to.

It's not that big of a deal to me when you've bested three other teams. It's also why I am against reseeding in playoffs. If you can't even be best out of four? Go on the road homie.

Yeah, before doing the math when the rule was put into place, I said more than 40% into the playoffs field is too much.

6 of 16 is 37.5% but 7 is 43.75% just seems too high.

Also, I very much disagree with playing one of the games on Monday.

The away conference for the Superbowl should have all their playoff games on Saturday (until maybe the conference game) and then the home conference should have all their playoff games on Sunday.

I did NOT think this would happen. The 2023 Packers made it into the playoffs. Granted, 7 of 16 isn't saying much. I just did NOT think they had it in them during a growth season to get into the playoffs.

Yes, we gonna get bounced out, but damn, the playoff experience for this young team is gonna make them HUNGRY in 2024. Just like that 2009 Wild Card made them hungry in 2010.

It's easy to look at a few of the games and say, "If only". Loses to Atlanta, Vegas, Broncos? GIANTS??? Puleeze.
