If winning the division doesn't necessarily make you more worthy and having the best record, especially by only like 1-2 games doesn't make you more worthy, then why not add controls such as, win your fukking division or have a good enough record for the wild card spot.
But they are, the way the game is played is based on arbitrary rules and scoring that people made up when they conceived the game, shortly after the SB was implemented, they conceived a way they wanted the playoffs to function and that is that. Again, what other logic you're seeking I don't know.
Won't be the first time it happened. Patriots the year Brady got hurt
Pats get home field advantage every year because of that shytty ass division of theirs
az literally had a shot at each team they are fighting for their playoff spot. they got rolled the fukk up both times. they know how its setup. win your division, and if you cant do that, win enough games to get the wild card. beating the teams in your way of the wild card is a nice way to assure you get said wild card spot. as a seahawk fan am i gonna whine if carolina happens to get the 1 seed, even though seattle beat them at their house? of course not, because thats just the way the shyt shakes out. arizona used this system to host a playoff game vs a team with a better record the year they made their super bowl run. lets pull an urban meyer and whine about it a few years later when you dont get your way though

I had just as much of an issue with the shyt NFC West teams were benefiting from the shyt as I do now that they are being penalized. The concept is dumb, not just the fact that the Cards will likely be screwed by it. if you cant win your division, and cant beat out 2 other teams for a playoff spot (both of whom this team in question got rolled the fukk up by), who really gives a fukk about that team being left out in the cold?
you are talking out your ass here. you talk about records, then talk about college football? you cant talk about better records deserving a shot then mention college football where they literally dont give a flying fukk about records. lets say northern illinois went unbeaten. youd rather see them in that playoff over a team like ohio st, stanford, baylor, oregon or ok state that would beat the fukking breaks off that shyt ass team? of course you wouldnt. you say you dont think anyone would want to see said northern illinois scenerio, then talk about the teams with the better records should get the shotSo people are fine with, hypothetically, a 6-10 division winner making it over an 11 win team?
If it were college football and a 8 team playoff I'm not sure how many people would co-sign the American Athletic Conference winner getting an automatic bid over SEC/Big 12/Pac 12 teams
