Maybe the NFL should go to a 'best 6 teams' format instead of division champs. Another solution would be to eliminate 1 of the byes in each conference, and add a 7th playoff team to each. Team with the best record gets rewarded with a bye, the division champs get homefield advantage, each conference gets 3 wildcards instead of just 2(which is inadequate), and the NFL gets the revenue of 2 extra games in the first week of the playoffs. A win/win all the way around, except for perhaps the 2nd best teams losing their byes. A good tradeoff.

Isn't this the current proposal for the NFL meetings coming up? I think this will be the case in the upcoming year or two.
