seanskins Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 it works in other leagues, the cfl has a crossover so if the 4th place team has a better record than the 3rd place in the west the east team will cross over. It will never happen, but theoretically it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPwr44 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 It might throw a wrench into that little thing called division rivalry, which this league was founded on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hail2skins Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I don't mind the concept of two teams from the same conference meeting in the SB; however, I hope they keep the number of teams in the playoffs at 12 for as long as possible. I fear that sooner or later its gonna get to 16 and the instances where you have 8-8 teams making the playoffs (as likely appears will be the case this year in the NFC) will be more the rule than the exception.

gridironmike Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 George Preston Marshall was the catalyst behind splitting the league into two divisions with the first place team in each playing for a championship. There wouldn't be much point in playing a division schedule under the format you suggested. The Arena Football League is switching from the "best two" format to the NFL style this season. New owners like John Elway and Ron Jaworski didn't like the fact the division schedule meant nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
