14 Playoff Teams


Bama Panther

Recommended Posts

A 2 seed would host wild card weekend, Divisional round weekend, and potential NFC/AFC title game if #1 seed is upset. I hope teams offer a 2 for 3 deal if you pay up front or something, I get sick at the idea if my team is the two seed I might have to drop more then the cost of my season tickets for 3 games in 3 weeks.

I’m pretty opposed to adding playoff spots in any professional sports league generally speaking. 
 

Some leagues have more teams make the playoffs than miss. It overall just devalues the regular season. Making that playoffs should be a serious accomplishment in itself. Not a big fan.

In my mind, it is just another example of the league fixing things that aren't broken.  But that is why I am primarily an NHL fan anymore, and my interest in the NFL does not extend much further than the Panthers.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
