egads!! Even after realigning into 4-division conferences, the NFL still wants wild card games!? Why not just go with the division winners; make it worth something.
And they make it worse by giving the winner of the weakest division (usually translates to more wins for the one good team) a bye week. Whaddacrock!
That said, good piece and nice analysis.
Go COLTS!
The winner of the weakest division gets a bye week? How do you figure? The number 1 and 2 seeds get the week off.
Do you mean that they are number 1 and 2 due to the weak teams they play in their division?
