But seriously, here’s what I want to know: What is a team that’s 2-4 in division (4-8 over the last two seasons) doing in the playoffs? It’s not quite the travesty of San Diego getting in at 8-8, but it’s not that far off.
All of that said, the Giants’ Superbowl victory last year is proof that in today’s NFL, any reasonably-decent team has a chance to win a championship, in a way that reasonably-decent teams in the NBA and MLB do not.
