Same number of weeks played.
The #1 seed that much more coveted.
My biggest concern is how often a #1 seed will end up making it to the Super Bowl as they now would have a decided advantage over every other team in their conference, as opposed to a much smaller advantage over the 2 seed as it stands now.
So that graphic supports my concern.
Nearly 80% of teams having received a bye since 1990 have made it to the Superbowl.
I contend that the number 1 seed under this new format will make it to the Super Bowl roughly 75% of the time. That is too distinct an advantage. Bad for the NFL.
So roughly every 4 years you'll have someone other than the 1 seed from each perspective conference reach the Super Bowl.
Is that what you want to see?
