NFL Playoffs expanding to 14 in '15... MNF game likely

That's too bad.  I think the NFL's playoff system, as it currently is, is the best in all professional sports.  Perhaps not perfect in terms of seeding and the division structure, but 12 teams is a great balance.

Wow...is all I can say, so almost half the league will be in the playoffs now. That's sad on Soo many levels, it's gonna cut down on hard fought, entertaining games now. I really hope the bottom dwellers that get in, get blown out bad to show that they don't deserve to be there, but it's a any givin Sunday league. The way it was set up before was ideal. Goodell is ruining this game.

I prefer MLB's as they have the least teams and I think for the postseason less is better but the NFL definitely has a better set-up to the other sports.  Adding two more waters it down, we already almost had an 8-8 WC team last season.

 

The worst part of this idea though is the MNF idea.  That is clearly an unfair disadvantage for whoever gets drawn there.

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
