Playoff discussion
We know about 8 or 9 sure teams of the 12.
One Wildcard spot up in the air in the AFC, and over in the NFC, Seattle & Chicago are currently a game up on a few others, Redskins, Cowboys.
Here's some recent history regarding playoffs, seeds, byes, etc.
No. 1 and No. 2 seeds just 15-13 in divisional round of playoffs from 2004-2011. Bye, home field not a big advantage like many think.
Only No. 1 seed to win Super Bowl since 2003 season was Saints in 09.
Only No. 2 seed to win it all since 2004, Steelers in 2008.
I think Houston & Atlanta would benefit the most from home field advantage, as the Saints did 3 years ago.
But we thought that of Atlanta 2 years ago too.
