So who likes this playoff format?

I kinda like it

only 1 seed gets bye

an extra team gets into the playoffs

 

One of the few tweaks of ‘the game’ that I actually appreciate 

I like it. I think it keeps teams playing longer (not resting guys, not playing the rookies because the team is eliminated).

Personally I don't.  I think if you play well enough to be the #2 seed in the conference you also deserve that bye.
Ultimately this is just a money grab, the more games the more tv revenue.

However, at the same time I'll never complain about more football.

When they announced it, I was thinking a play-in game between the two lowest seeds would be fun but they wanted to capitalize and make it a big single wildcard weekend and not stretch out the schedule.

No brainer. I didn't get why so many complained at first. Makes the season much more interesting with teams playing for more whether it's the final playoff spot or the 1st round bye. Remember how they moved like half of week 17 to the late slot since they all had playoff implications? Meanwhile every other year, there are teams resting their starters in week 16.

And how can you dislike an entire weekend of nonstop football? The 1st 2-7 game, Buffalo-Indy, was the best game of the weekend so far. How can anyone have preferred Buffalo having a week off over playing that game? They should have changed this years ago.

Isn't that sort of "unamerican"? Either you win or you do not. No reward for the losers! Haha... 

If they keep the 16 games format. I want the NFL to consider a condition for the division winners. Only division winners with 0.500 or better go to the playoff. Otherwise that spot goes to the team with the highest winning percentage..

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
