At least 2 better NFC teams will watch the Saints or Falcons in the playoffs :(

I'm speculating, but it's likely.

The NFC South Champion (probably NO or Atlanta) will not have a winning record.

That leaves five playoff spots - three division winners and two wildcards:

• Dallas
• Philadelphia
• GB
• Arizona
• Detroit
• San Fran
• Seattle

Two teams on the above list will not make the playoffs and watch the Aints or Dirty Burds on TV - bummer.

Don't know what you do about it. If you just take the top six seeds, then you almost certainly have to change the schedule so you play everybody in the NFC and hardly anyone else.

Any given Sunday.

As stupid as it might sound, I would not want to have the Cowboys go to New Orleans for a knockout game. Imagine the reaction if Romo lost a playoff game to a 6-10 team?

There's a legitimate shot that the NFC South Winner can be 6-10. I know the Seahawks were 7-9 one year but do any of you know the worst record to ever make playoffs?
