No doubt aided by home field advantage and a lesser opponent due to a higher seeding simply because they won a bad division. Doing rankings sheerly by record instead of giving division winners automatic home field advantage isn't a negative IMO ever. Yeah, teams with losing records winning a bad division is only an occasional issue. But rewarding a team for having a better record is just a good thing IMO. Give the division winners an automatic bid, but do seeding purely by record. It's just the fairest way to set up the bracket while still protecting the integrity of the divisions. Yeah, occasionally a team with a better record will be left out because some worse team won a bad division. Oh well. Now that team is gonna have to go on the road against one of the best teams in the league instead of having an IMO unfair and unearned advantage of a home game and a lesser opponent simply because they were the best bad team in a trash division. -
Bu sometimes that "losing team" quiets the noise by winning their plyoff game. The NFL has an unfortunate habit of reacting to things that happen once in a while by making changes that affect thngs all the time. (like adjusting th rules anytime Tom Brady got hurt) -
