sure the playoffs are coming and they might rest starters

but also there's some mega grudge match action and Dan Campbell would rather play all his #1's and see them carried off on the golf cart than let them sit and heal for 12 minutes

excited

The stakes are huge here.

Yeah loser drops to the 5 seed and goes in the road next week. Crazy.

I think the road the entire way.

Crazy for it to happen this way but not sure how or why you would alter the system for situations like this

Division winners shouldn't be guaranteed a top 4 seed, just a playoff spot.

I would feel differently if the divisions were larger (say 6-8 teams a piece).

Yep, seed based on record once field is set. Packers as the 7th seed is annoying.

My counter argument: win more games then

Minnesota and Detroit: “we won 14 frickin’ games”

Mecca: “win more!”

This is a ridiculous take. Name one call that Campbell has made that has cost them this year. You’re putting too much stock in the NFC Championship game last year. For every bad decision that he has supposedly made, he’s made 5 that have put them in positions to win that have succeeded. I mean, I suppose he could be like Todd Bowles.

Also, why do they have to be tested in bad weather? Is the Super Bowl being played in Montana or something?

edit: the game where they dominated the Packers in Green Bay this year was terrible weather. Funny, but the team that couldn’t handle it wasn’t Detroit.
