No the tuck rule thing was a joke. I mean the tuck rule thing is bs, and so is this tie breaker thing. I mean this does not seem right. I\'m sure you know what I mean. We beat the Rams but they go to the playoffs over us. I understand because they had a better confrence win loss record and the Rams did not play the vikes but this is retarded. I sure hope the Saints come back pissed after this.

In 2003, Miami ended with a 10-6 record, beating the Ravens in week 11. The Ravens ended 10-6. The Ravens went to the playoffs, yet Miami didn\'t... it may not seem \"fair\", but Baltimore won its division, Miami didn\'t.. sort of same type of thing here... you have 3 teams that have identical records.. since you cannot apply the head-to-head tie breaker to 2 of the three, you have to go to the next tie breaker...
