Some of the posts here are strange.
First off, even if the AFC is clearly better than the NFC, which I doubt, we’d only have to face one of those teams, and I don’t think we would be big underdogs to Baltimore at all.
Secondly, the point is the 9ers have clear flaws. That’s why they have 4 losses and not 0 or 1. They absolutely could lose to a number of teams in the playoffs. And just because we got blown out once doesn’t mean we will again. We got blown out by TB last year then blew them out in their house. The Jets got blown out by the Pats in 2010, 40-3 or something, then destroyed them in their house in the playoffs. How about Steelers vs Colts in ‘05. This stuff happens.
