Posted January 5, 20232 yr The possibility of having the top seed decide between home-field advantage or a first round bye (with the second seed taking whichever option the top seed doesn’t choose)????? https://www.totalprosports.com/nfl/nfl-playoffs-extra-team-bills-bengals-cancelled/
January 5, 20232 yr I mean you can't do that. There's no easy answer but you can't penalise other teams after a long hard year.

With the extra Wild Card, in each conference there are 8 teams in the playoffs. In your scenario the first round 6 teams play, resulting in 3 winners + 2 bye teams go in the second round. You start running into grid problems with 5 teams left alive. Top teams get two byes in the playoffs?
