Playoff football format brainstorming

The unpredictability of football is also it's draw. You can't remove the "on any given Sunday" part and have the same sport.

It bites that the Saints aren't in it. But the loss the year gives hope and excitement to every underdog wildcard team in the future. It's just part of the game that it isn't always the best team to advance. And I'm ok with that because that's also how life works.
