Course the NFC would have 4 division leaders clinch half way through the season and the AFC would still have 12 teams in the hunt in December that way.

What a stupid idea.

No #6 seed has ever made the SB, so now we want to expand it to seven seeds? This makes the league less competive, not more.

And saying that a 10-5 Tampa team faces elimination is pure propaganda. For that to happen the following events would have to take place:
Tampa lose to NO
Giants lose to Oakland
Washington beats Philadelphia
Dallas beats St Louis
Carolina beats Atlanta
And then some other obscure combination of game outcomes required to drop Tampa's strength of victory below both the Giants' and Cowboys' strength of victory.

I think Tampa is pretty safe and I think Carl Peterson is trying to find a way to make his job easier.

Yeah, CP is the kind of guy would fug you in the arse and not have the goddam common courtesy, to give you a reach arround.

Carl is an idiot. It really looks l,ike sour grapes-besides we are not 10-6 yet.

Shut up Carl!!!!!!

You wouldn't be whinning about Playoff teams if your own team hadn't blown leads and sleep walked thru road games.

More playoff games=more money for the league

Why am I not surprised the Chiefs are leading the charge for that one.

The problem is, it's already so hard for a wild card to make it all the way... Adding another round is only going to make it that much harder.

I don't like the idea just because it seems every year there is at least 1 team that really shouldn't be there already in the playoff's. The last few years you could point to a lot of NFC teams that shouldn't have been in the playoff's. At some point that will be true of the AFC as well. Hell, Jacksonville will get creamed in their first playoff game.

We have to make it to 10 wins first

playoffs are big enough



i do like their idea of expanding the team rosters though.

Just what I was gonna post.

Rep.

This is exactly what I thought when I heard this on the radio this morning.

Just win the ****ing games you're supposed to, and we'd be in.

Dammit Carl!!!

It's Carl's type of thinking that is the reason why there is no NCAA Div 1 playoff. Coaches and administrators know that fans will view the year as a failure if their college doesn't make the 16-team or whatever playoff....so they are opposed to one.

Maybe Carl should propose a 2nd-tiered bowl system. Maybe we could have a rematch with Dallas in the not quite good enough bowl.

The Second Place is the First Loser Bowl:hmmm:

Ooooh! I know! We could have the Chiefs play the National Champions this year the week AFTER the pro bowl!
