Newz Forum: FOOTBALL: Two more teams in the playoffs

PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) A proposal to let two more teams into the NFL playoffs could have a chance at passing at the league meetings after all.

The Kansas City Chiefs will propose an increase in postseason qualifiers from 12 to 14 at this week's meetings. The NFL Competition Committee is against it, and the committee carries much sway.

Seems weird to me that they want to add two more spots to the list of teams who can make the playoffs.It will certainly hurt the prestige of making it into the playoff but also help the league create more money and therefore a better game.

Dont get why in the world they would want to even think about something like this.

The only thing it will do positive is increase the revenue because the playoffs will be lenghtened... I don't like the idea at all though becasue it will take away from the pre post-season jitters of who is going to make the playoffs.

another no vote on this plan, it's just a money making scheme, keep the playoffs for the elite teams otherwise the regular season will be meaningless

soon every team will be in the playoffs, and the stats wont matter any more.

Soon all the teams will be in and there will be no action. NO ACTION
