I was just examining the newly proposed 12 team playoff format.
If I understand it right, seeds 5- 12, if one of them reaches the championship game will have played 4 playoff games to win it all. FOUR. (One game less for top 4 seeds) That's heavy-duty football against top teams. That's great for fans but terrible for players. This is not including the league championship game. That would be FIVE. WOO. that's a 17 game season. Isn't that asking too much?
But, selfishly, I am all for it.
