Right?!
But you never know....Those dirty birdies were 14/2 in 98.

Makes you wonder...does anyone in the NFL think it's a good idea to seed the division winners ahead of teams with a better record--in some cases, a MUCH better record? It's illogical, unfair. Fis it!

It proves that you still have to play the game.
Please God, just one Lombardi before I die.

Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?
Glad Buffalo lost Sunday and has something to play for against Detroit. Rams have a tough game Thursday night at the 49ers. Vikings stacking all those wins have come in handy right now.
The Vikings may be playoff-bound before they even take the field against the Chicago Bears on “Monday Night Football.”
The 11-2 Vikings have a 99% playoff probability, according to NFL.com, and control their own destiny, needing only one more win (or a tie) to lock it up.
But they can also secure a spot in the postseason if the Rams (7-6) lose or tie on the road to the 49ers (6-7) on Thursday night or if the Seahawks (8-5) lose or tie at home to the Packers (9-4) on Sunday night.
The Vikings remain the fifth seed in the NFC playoff picture and would play the fourth-seeded Buccaneers (7-6) in Tampa in the first round if the season ended today.
TNF game will be must see
SNF game will be must see
Sunday Det vs Bills will be must see
Its that time of year...
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Exactly, when they went from 3 divisions to 4 they should have changed the seeding rules. I said at the time that they should eliminate divisions and just have two conferences where every team plays every other team in the conference alternating home and away each season.

Look at the division we play this year. They all suck. That's why our entire division has such good records. Hence why they do division winners.

You have a point but I still like my idea better, getting rid of divisions.
