Takes away from parity. They already get home field advantage, that's a good reward and enough of an edge. Because you cant have 5 games with 9 teams,and wild card weekend is to find out who the 8 seed is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home field advantage IS the prize, it's huge advantage Fourth best division winner gets home field advantage. We got it by barely having a winning record last season. We surely didn’t deserve the same as the number one regular season team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s time for the Bengals to Turn the Page. Burrow’s team now. He doesn’t need the distraction of all the deep feelings players have with Dalton developed over all these years. Plus it’s doing right by Dalton to let him move forward.(probably to the Pats...but that’s a different post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the extra incentive to earn that top seed and get a bye. I don't think I'm minimizing it.....I think the incentive should be getting to the playoffs and a chance to win a super bowl........the regular season should be the qualifier with no team getting additional advantage just because they finished with a better record. New England is a perfect example of this being a unfair advantage......the've played in the worst dvision in football for 15 years.....they pile on wins against weak divisional opponents that almost always gave them the HF advantage and first round byes. Why should they be rewarded for that? Having 3 home playoff games should be incentive enough.....giving them an extra week of rest is excessive.
