Waddya know, both the Colts and the Bengals tanked against the Jets, and the Jets, from the biggest media market in the US, made the playoffs.

Who is pissed about the current situation is not only fans of the good teams that decided to rest their starters, but fans of teams that didn’t make the playoffs, but would’ve made it had the better team played their starters. Mostly Steelers fans, I’d think.

All I have to say to the Steelers, is "Next time, beat Cleveland."

You nailed it with that one. Fans of teams that need help making the playoffs are pissed.

Maybe the NFL should eliminate the Wild Card format altogether and go with some type of lottery at the end for non-division winners.
