Re: How the last few playoff seasons have felt

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.

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.
