The Panthers put their remaining 7000 playoff tickets on sale yesterday. They sold out in 3 minutes.

Nope, at 12-4, SF I the number 5 seed behind the 8-7-1 Packers. The NFL should go by record once the playoffs start. Even if 3 teams in a division make it in (as almost happened this year).
Seeding can easily be by record. If the best record was deemed champion, the Seachickens would be the champs already. Regular season is to pick the 6 best teams in each division. Seeding based on record makes sense.If seeding was by record why have playoffs? The best record is deemed the champion. One reason is the scheduling differences. If a team was lucky say like Green Bay, they would have been in one of the worst divisions in football, then they were assigned the NFC East another worst division, and the could have also had the weak AFC division North to boot.

Not really feeling the choice.The NFL says it is to pick the 4 division winners for a home game, I feel they deserve, and the 2 best teams that failed to win their division in each conference. (May soon be 3 wildcard teams.)
What of the choice idea?

NFC West and AFC West were the best divisions in the NFL this year.Not really, your division might have had an easier match up in non division opponents. For example it looks like your division was matched up against the AFC South. Houston, Tennessee and Jacksonville were pretty bad this year. All the teams in your division won those games except 1.

They sure did. Luck will be a great one and I am sure Indy is back on the rise. I wish them luck in the playoffs.AFC West also played.........wait for it.....the AFC South (Tenn, Jacksonville and Houston)
Not saying that SF and Seattle aren't very good teams, but Indy beat the 2 teams that made the playoffs from NFC west.
I'm a traditionalist when it comes to this stuff. In the NFL every teams first goal is to win their division, generally against hated regional rivals. The second is seeding, the tiebreak procedures provide an entertaining several weeks at the end each season as where you have to go is constantly changing. If you want a home game, simply win your division. If your division was replayed 5 times Seattle would win it 4 times, so sadly for you, the best team won it.
Now one tweak I have pondered is, letting the conference winner pick their opponent for their game. So after this weekend, Seattle would select GB/SF winner or Philidelphia/NO winner. My reasoning was, the way theses seasons work out, often the Champion is seeded against a team that had an awful start, but really put it together later in the season and are a very dangerous opponent after a week off. The same, of course, works out where the second seed gets a team that lost heir way into the playoffs, so giving the choice to the Champion makes sense.

Superbowl prices are way out of whack too, but that's another issue.
Good article. As I said on another thread, I priced tickets for the four of us for this Saturday's game. The cheapest nose bleed tickets I could find were still over $500. By the time you add in parking, and concessions, the total bill would be well over $700 for about four hours of fun.
The prices for a game are completely nuts. The NFL should charge ½ face value of regular season's tickets for pre-season games, and keep the same price for post season play. Superbowl prices are way out of whack too, but that's another issue.
