How the last few playoff seasons have felt

TheOak · 02-02-2021, 10:30 AM

Why is getting into the playoffs associated with having a good chance to get into the Super Bowl?

Do many of you realize that the honor of being a playoff team is something that 44% of the league get each year lol? 14 teams get into the playoffs, that's 2 shy of half the frikken league.

Not making the play offs speaks to how craptastic a team is a lot more than making it does for how good a team is lol.

That's a good point. Nobody is talking about how his arm is gone, and yet, he and Drew still have the same number of rings.

Reality is that both have one ring.

Painful reality incoming:

Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and..., REX GROSSMAN all have the same number of NFC championships.

Painful, very painful.

Aaron Rodgers is a good Huckster which adds to the PERCEPTION "He must be a Great QB Too" Reality is he's worse than Brees and in a category all his own. Only QB in NFL History to lose 4 consecutive NFC Championship games

So, you would rather be a crap team like Jets, Cleveland, Buffalo, Detroit, Jacksonville that went 20 years with very few playoff appearances and perennial losing records?

I honestly think you replied to the wrong thing. Your reply has nothing to do with the my quote. Zero...

Is English your first language?

Getting into the playoffs gives a team an infinitesimally greater chance of getting to the Super Bowl than not getting into the playoffs.

It gives a team a chance..., until the starting QB for said team throws 3 (three) int’s, a 55.88 completion %, 134 total yards, with a 38.1 QB rating.
